Fumonisins in African Countries
Toxins, 2022 Maize and other cereals are the commodities most contaminated with fumonisins. The maize acreage is increasing in Africa, and the maize harvest provides important foods for humans and feeds for domestic animals throughout the continent.

Pyrrocidines A and B demonstrate synergistic inhibition of Fusarium verticillioides growth [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyFusarium verticillioides—a mycotoxigenic fungus and food safety threat—coinhabits maize kernels with Sarocladium zeae. This protective endophyte produces secondary metabolites of interest, pyrrocidines A and B, which inhibit the growth of F ...

Validation and Application of a Low-Cost Sorting Device for Fumonisin Reduction in Maize
Toxins, 2021 Fumonisin mycotoxins are a persistent challenge to human and livestock health in tropical and sub-tropical maize cropping systems, and more efficient methods are needed to reduce their presence in food systems. We constructed a novel, low-cost device for

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 The effects of fumonisins on sphingolipids in turkeys are unknown, except for the increased sphinganine to sphingosine ratio (Sa:So) used as a biomarker. Fumonisins fed at 20.2 mg/kg for 14 days were responsible for a 4.4 fold increase in the Sa:So ratio

In vitro Interaction between Fumonisin B1 and the Intestinal Microflora of Pigs [PDF]
Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2017 The caecal chyme of pigs was incubated anaerobically in McDougall buffer with and without fumonisin B1 (5 μg/ml) for 0, 24 and 48 h. The plate count agar technique was applied for enumerating the amount of bacteria including aerobic, anaerobic ...
