Uraemic toxins and new methods to control their accumulation : game changers for the concept of dialysis adequacy [PDF]
The current concept of an adequate dialysis based only on the dialysis process itself is rather limited. We now have considerable knowledge of uraemic toxicity and improved tools for limiting uraemic toxin accumulation. It is time to make use of these. A

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 ...

Paralytic shellfish toxins and ocean warming: bioaccumulation and ecotoxicological responses in jujvenile Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) [PDF]
Warmer seawater temperatures are expected to increase harmful algal blooms (HABs) occurrence, intensity, and distribution. Yet, the potential interactions between abiotic stressors and HABs are still poorly understood from ecological and seafood safety ...

Bacillus anthracis edema factor substrate specificity: evidence for new modes of action [PDF]
Since the isolation of Bacillus anthracis exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only.

Radioimmunoassay of T-2 Toxin in Biological Fluids
Abstract A simple radioimmunoassay (RIA) for detection of T-2 toxin in biological fluids was developed. The method, which involves a Sep-Pak C18 reverse phase column cleanup step before RIA, can detect 0.5 ppb T-2 toxin in serum and 2.5 ppb T-2 toxin in urine and milk. Recoveries for toxin added to serum and urine or milk samples were 87-

Synergism between fungal enzymes and bacterial antibiotics may enhance biocontrol [PDF]
The interactions between biocontrol fungi and bacteria may play a key role in the natural process of biocontrol, although the molecular mechanisms involved are still largely unknown.

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.
