Mycotoxin food safety risk in developing countries [PDF]

"Mycotoxins are produced by fungi, commonly known as mold. These toxins can develop during production, harvesting, or storage of grains, nuts, and other crops. Mycotoxins are among the most potent mutagenic and carcinogenic substances known.

Determination of fumonisin content in maize using near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) technology and chemometric methods

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Maize (Zea mays L.) is of socioeconomic importance as an essential food for human and animal nutrition. However, cereals are susceptible to attack by mycotoxin-producing fungi, which can damage health.

Fumonisin B-glucose reaction products detoxify fumonisin B in swine

, 2018
Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is the most prevalent of the fumonisins, mycotoxins produced by fungi of the genus Fusarium that contaminate corn-based foods. Exposure to hazardous levels of this mycotoxin has been associated with a broad variety of animal and human diseases.

Variation in sequence and location of the fumonisin mycotoxin niosynthetic gene cluster in Fusarium [PDF]

In Fusarium, the ability to produce fumonisins is governed by a 17-gene fumonisin biosynthetic gene (FUM) cluster. Here, we examined the cluster in F.

Cellular toxicity of Fumonisins

, 2018
Tetrazolium salt cleavage test (MTT), a rapid colorimetric assay, was used to study the mechanisms involved in the cytotoxicity of Fumonisins (FB) in cell culture. Cell lines used were derived from reported organs susceptible to FB toxicity. The cell lines were: BNL-CL2, CL9, LLC-PK[subscript]1, and L2 derived from mouse liver, rat liver, pig kidney ...
