Transformations of Selected Fusarium Toxins and Their Modified Forms During Malt Loaf Production
An increasing number of studies have found that modified mycotoxins, such as free mycotoxins, naturally occur in food, and severely impact food safety. The present study investigated concentrations of trichothecenes nivalenol (NIV), deoxynivalenol (DON),

ZEARALENONE: INCIDENCE TOXIGENIC FUNGI AND CHEMICAL DECONTAMINATION IN EGYPTIAN CEREALS [PDF]
An investigation for occurrence of Zearalenone (ZEN) and toxigenic fungi in cereals (Corn, 50 samples; rice 45 samples, and wheat, 40 samples) collected from Egypt. ZEN was detected in 15 of 50 corn samples with an average 22.32 ppb.

Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of Zearalenone-Induced Intestinal Damage in Weaned Piglets
Zearalenone (ZEN), also known as the F-2 toxin, is a common contaminant in cereal crops and livestock products. This experiment aimed to reveal the changes in the proteomics of ZEN-induced intestinal damage in weaned piglets by tandem mass spectrometry ...

Evaluation of Activity of Pro- and Anti-Inflammatory Mediators and Nitrosative Stress in Liver Tissue of Wild Boars (<i>Sus scrofa</i>) Positive for Zearalenone (ZEN) Contamination in Campania Region, Southern Italy. [PDF]
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycotoxin commonly produced by Fusarium species and is often found in food and feed. It has been linked to reproductive problems in livestock and, less frequently, to hyperestrogenic effects in humans. However, information regarding the impact of ZEN on wild boars (Sus scrofa) remains scarce, despite this species being among the ...

Test and Analysis on Mycotoxin Level of Hulless Barley
299 samples of highland barley were collected from Gansu, Tibet, Qinghai and Sichuan provinces, 143 mycotoxins were analysed by HPLC-MS/MS. The results showed that 13 mycotoxins in the samples from every province were not beyond the standard, just only T-

A method for estimating the outer exposure of dairy cows to deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN) as a precondition for risk assessment based on inner exposure with toxin residue levels in blood and urine as indicators. [PDF]
AbstractDON and ZEN residues in the blood and urine of dairy cows can be used to predict the outer exposure to DON and ZEN expressed per kilogram diet for a risk evaluation based on comparisons to critical dietary concentrations. This method was used to evaluate the exposure of dairy cows from 12 farms located in Brandenburg, Germany, fed rations with ...

Changes in the Subpopulations of Porcine Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes Induced by Exposure to Low Doses of Zearalenone (ZEN) and Deoxynivalenol (DON) [PDF]
Zearalenone and deoxynivalenol are secondary metabolites of fungi of the genus Fusarium. The presence of mycotoxins in cereals and the resulting contamination of feeds and foods pose health risks for animals and humans. The dangers associated with high doses of mycotoxins have been extensively researched but very little is known about NOAEL (No ...

The efficacy of yeast cell wall in the adverse effect of zearalenone on ruminal fibrolytic bacteria and in vitro fermentation [PDF]
The efficacy of yeast cell wall in the adverse effects of zearalenone (ZEN) in in vitro gas production was determined. The experiment consisted of 4 treatments: 1) diet alone, 2) diet plus 0.5 mg/kg ZEN, 3) diet supplemented with 0.5% yeast cell wall ...

Advances in Studies on Toxicity and Transformation of Zearalenone and Its Derivatives [PDF]
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycotoxin produced by the Fusarium species, which has various toxic effects. The chemical structures of ZEN and its derivatives are similar to that of estrogen.
