Degradation of fumonisin B1 by a bacterial strain isolated from soil

, 2006
A mixed microbial culture degrading fumonisin B l was obtained from soil samples using an enrichment culture procedure. A bacterial isolate from the enrichment culture (strain NCB 1492) degraded fumonisin B1 after incubation for 3 h, as indicated by TLC ...

Assessing Risk of Fumonisin Contamination in Maize Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Journal of Chemistry, 2015
Fumonisins are major mycotoxins found worldwide in maize and maize products. Because of their toxicity for both human and animals, European Union regulations were created to fix the maximal fumonisin B1 and B2 content allowed in foods and feeds ...

Occurrence of potentially toxigenic Fusarium verticillioides and low fumonisin B₁ content on barley grain in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
A study was conducted to determine the mycobiota, the presence of potential fumonisin producers, and eventual fumonisin B1 contamination on four barley grain samples from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Alternaria spp.

Excretion of 14C-Fumonisin B1, 14C-Hydrolyzed Fumonisin B1, and 14C-Fumonisin B1-Fructose in Rats

, 1999
14C-Fumonisin B1 (FB1) was produced by Fusarium proliferatum M-5991 in modified Myro liquid medium and purified to >95% purity with a specific activity of 1.7 mCi/mmol. Nine male and nine female F344/N rats were each dosed by gavage with 0.69 μmol of 14C-

Fumonisin Toxicity in Broiler Chicks

, 1992
The effects of dietary fumonisin B1 were evaluated in young broiler chicks. The experimental design consisted of 5 treatments each with 9 randomly allotted male broiler chicks. Day-old chicks were fed diets containing 0 (feed control), 100, 200, 300, or

Construction of an Array of Antibody–Gold Nanoparticle Conjugates for Their Comparative Assessment on Multiplex Lateral Flow Test to Detect Mycotoxins

Proceedings
A multiplex lateral flow immuno-biosensor for rapid, simple, and ultrasensitive on-site quantification of aflatoxin B1, type B-Fumonisin, and zearalenone in food requires the conjugation of their anti-toxin antibodies to the gold nanoparticles of various
