Fumonisins are mycotoxins (MTs) produced mainly by the fungus Fusarium verticillioides, the main pathogens of maize which cause ear rot. The aim of this work was to evaluate some factors that may lead to high fumonisin production by F. verticillioides in

Quantification of Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum by real-time PCR system and zearalenone assessment in maize [PDF]
Zearalenone (ZEA) is a mycotoxin produced by some species of Fusarium, especially by Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum. ZEA induces hyperoestrogenic responses in mammals and can result in reproductive disorders in farm animals. In the present study, a

Review of mycotoxin reduction in food and feed: from prevention in the field to detoxification by adsorption or transformation [PDF]
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites present worldwide in agricultural commodities and produced by filamentous fungi that cause a toxic response (mycotoxicosis) when ingested by animals.

Commercial biocontrol agents reveal contrasting comportments against two mycotoxigenic fungi in cereals: Fusarium Graminearum and Fusarium Verticillioides [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of commercialized biological control agents (BCAs) against two major mycotoxigenic fungi in cereals, Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium verticillioides, which are trichothecene and fumonisin producers ...

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

The study demonstrates the effectiveness of various chemical fungicides in controlling Aspergillus flavus growth and aflatoxin production in pistachios, with cyprodinil, fludioxonil, pyrimethanil and flusilazole showing the most promising results. Abstract BACKGROUND Significant presence of aflatoxins (AFs) in pistachio nuts has been reported during ...

Assessment of dried blood spots for multi-mycotoxin biomarker analysis in pigs and broiler chickens [PDF]
Dried blood spots (DBSs), a micro-sampling technique whereby a drop of blood is collected on filter paper has multiple advantages over conventional blood sampling regarding the sampling itself, as well as transportation and storage.
