Flour delivered to a school in the Bournemouth area was found by thinlayered chromatography to contain up to 6.25 mg/dg of ochratoxin. A. Penicillium cyclopium, a fungus known to produce this toxin, was found in discoloured portions of the caked flour. Ochratoxin was also found in a second sack delivered to the school, but not in samples of sound flour

Metabolic Pathways of Ochratoxin A
Current Drug Metabolism, 2011Ochratoxin A (OTA) as a carcinogenic of group 2B to humans is produced by various fungi strains as Aspergillus and Penicillium. It is one of the most common contaminant in foodstuff. OTA is nephrotoxic, hepatotoxic, teratogenic, and immunotoxic and is assumed to cause Balkan Endemic Nephropathy (BEN), a chronic kidney disease in humans when it is ...

Toxicity and metabolism of ochratoxin A
Natural Toxins, 1995AbstractThe frequent occurrence of ochratoxin A (OA) in food and feed commodities and the high incidence of human exposure, as confirmed by different surveillance studies initiated several investigations devoted to elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying OA toxicity.

Determination of ochratoxin A in beer
Food Additives and Contaminants, 1995Because of concern about possible transmission of ochratoxin A (OA) from contaminated grain adjuncts, development of a sensitive method for its determination in beer was investigated. Solid phase extraction (SPE) on C-18 and silica gel columns in series and on an immunoaffinity column (OchraTest) were used to obtain extracts for quantitation by reverse

Interaction of citrinin and ochratoxin A
Natural Toxins, 1994AbstractThe mycotoxins citrinin and ochratoxin A are produced in common by some molds and have been found together in a number of foods and animal feeds. We used in vitro tests to determine if the Same effects are produced by these two mycotoxins when they act both independently and together.

The dialysis of Ochratoxin A (OTA)
Mycotoxin Research, 2001Standard dialysis did not result in a decrease of the OTA level in the blood serum of patients regularly treated by dialysis. Therefore, we examined the effect of dialysis on both OTA bound to the blood plasma proteins and free OTA. We carried out an in vivo experiment to determine OTA levels in the serum of patients in the terminal stage of chronic ...

The fate of ochratoxin A (OA) was studied in goats given a single oral dose of 3H-OA (0.5 mg/kg). More than 90% of the radioactivity was found to be excreted in 7 days and the majority (53%) was found in feces. Thirty-eight percent, 6% and 2.26% of the activity was found in urine, milk and serum, respectively.

Ochratoxin A and ochratoxin-producing fungi on cereal grain in China: a review
Food Additives & Contaminants: Part A, 2015The mycotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA) is known to be the main contaminant of cereal grain and has become increasingly important in recent years. Therefore, a survey of ochratoxigenic fungi and OTA contamination in China is a special challenge. This paper summarises data on cereals and moulds (Aspergillus niger, Penicillium verrucosum, Aspergillus ochraceus,

Pharmacokinetics of ochratoxin A in animals.
IARC scientific publications, 1991The fate of ochratoxin A has been studied in laboratory rodents and in breeding animals. In rats, orally administered ochratoxin A is readily absorbed, and considerable amounts of the toxin are detected in plasma, where maximal concentrations occur 2-4 h after administration.
