Impacts of cereal ergot in food animal production
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2016 The negative impacts of ergot contamination of grain on the health of humans and animals were first documented during the 5th century AD. Although ergotism is now rare in humans, cleaning contaminated grain concentrates ergot bodies in screenings which ...

Effect of Field-applied Fungicides on Claviceps purpurea Sclerotia and Associated Toxins in Wheat
Journal of Food Protection, 2023 Claviceps purpurea (Fr.) Tul is the causal organism for ergot impacting grass hosts, including wheat. The pathogen produces ergot alkaloids (EAs) during the development of mature sclerotia leading to potential wheat quality discounts or rejection at the ...

Vasoactive Effects of Acute Ergot Exposure in Sheep
Toxins, 2021 Ergotism is a common and increasing problem in Saskatchewan’s livestock. Chronic exposure to low concentrations of ergot alkaloids is known to cause severe arterial vasoconstriction and gangrene through the activation of adrenergic and serotonergic ...
