Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration? [PDF]
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...

Faces of a Changing Climate: Semi-Quantitative Multi-Mycotoxin Analysis of Grain Grown in Exceptional Climatic Conditions in Norway [PDF]
Recent climatological research predicts a significantly wetter climate in Southern Norway as a result of global warming. Thus, the country has already experienced unusually wet summer seasons in the last three years (2010–2012).

The Occurrence of “Emerging“ Mycotoxins in Brewing Raw Materials
“Emerging“ mycotoxins are newly appearing mycotoxins, the existence of which was previously unknown. Fusaproliferin, beauvericin, enniatins, and moniliformin are metabolites of the most frequent fungi of Fusarium spp.

Formation of moniliformin by Fusarium sporotrichioides and Fusarium culmorum [PDF]
Two strains of Fusarium sporotrichioides and one strain of F. culmorum were shown to produce the mycotoxin moniliformin in rice culture. Identification was by reverse-phase liquid chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and mass spectrometry.
