Some of the other major types of Fusarium toxins include: beauvercin and enniatins, butenolide, equisetin, and fusarins (all included in this Detox Remedy). (hcmionline.com)
Penicillium3
Ochratoxin is a mycotoxin produced by Penicillium and Aspergillus species. (hcmionline.com)
Citrinin is a mycotoxin produced by Penicillium and several species of Aspergillus. (hcmionline.com)
Penicillium crustosum produces several mycotoxins, the most prominent and the most toxic being the penitrem A. Other compounds from the same group produced by P. crustosum are penitrems B-F, which are less toxic but potentially dangerous. (bustmold.com)
Aspergillus3
Aflatoxin is produced by two species of Aspergillus, A. flavus and A. parasiticus, which are known to affect plants including cereal grains, figs, nuts, and tobacco. (wikipedia.org)
In the 1960s, about 100,000 turkey poults died near London, England due to peanut meal that was contaminated by Mycotoxins produced by Aspergillus flavus. (wikipedia.org)
Aflatoxins are a type of mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus species of fungi. (hcmionline.com)
Fumonisins1
Fumonisins were the most recent mycotoxin found to affect humans and animals negatively. (wikipedia.org)
Toxins2
Mycotoxins (mould toxins) and plant toxins (toxins produced by plants) are among the natural toxins whose occurrence in food and animal feed is undesirable, but not completely avoidable. (bund.de)
Mycotoxins (mould toxins) and plant toxins (natural plant toxins, also phytotoxins) are among the undesirable substances in food and feed. (bund.de)
If there is too much moisture then fungi have a better chance of growing and producing mycotoxins. (wikipedia.org)
Along with moisture levels, factors such as temperature, grain condition, and the presence of chemical or biologicalcan determine whether or not mycotoxin producing fungi will grow. (wikipedia.org)
The preponderance of specialized fungi in particular niches determines the type and range of mycotoxins that may contaminate food or indoor environment. (cabi.org)
Inhalation of mycotoxin producing fungi in contaminated buildings is the most significant exposure. (hcmionline.com)
Ergot Alkaloids are compounds produced as a toxic mixture of alkaloids in the Claviceps species of fungi, which are common pathogens of various grass species. (hcmionline.com)
Species1
Other methods of prevention include planting species that are able to defend naturally against mycotoxins, proper fertilization, weed control, and proper crop rotation. (wikipedia.org)
Ergot2
Ergot alkaloids are associated with grasses that are produced in a structure of Claviceps called the sclerotia. (wikipedia.org)
Some of the conditions that result from ergot ingestion in animals include gangrene, abortion, convulsions, hypersensitivity, and ataxia. (wikipedia.org)
Citrinin1
OTA has been linked with the incidence of Balkan (and possible Tunisian) endemic nephropathy, but the co-occurrence of OTA with citrinin suggests an interaction between the 2 mycotoxins. (cabi.org)
Cereal grains1
In temperate countries, mycotoxin residues in cereal grains are largely the result of fungal disease of standing crops in the field. (cabi.org)
Livestock2
The use of contaminated feedstocks in livestock nutrition may result in the transfer of mycotoxins to animal products, particularly milk and offal. (cabi.org)
Mycotoxins can appear in the food chain as a result of fungal infection of crops, either by being eaten directly by humans or by being used as livestock feed. (hcmionline.com)
Humans3
Mycotoxins induce adverse effects in humans and other vertebrate animals. (cabi.org)
Consequently, humans may be exposed to combinations of different foodborne mycotoxins. (cabi.org)
Of course they are also toxic to the cells of higher plants and animals, including humans. (hcmionline.com)
Exposure1
A broad spectrum of adverse outcomes has been associated with chronic exposure, including carcinogenesis, hepatitis, nephrotoxicity and endocrine disruption. (cabi.org)
Animal feed2
Another animal feed product is genetically altered grass and animals including cattle, sheep, and horses eat tons of it. (wikipedia.org)
It has been suggested that mycotoxins in stored animal feed are the cause of apparent sex change in hens. (hcmionline.com)
Food4
For example, mycotoxins may be formed on harvested crops both in the field or during storage and thus lead to contamination of food and feed. (bund.de)
These include plants that are used as food or feed and that contain substances themselves that are toxic above certain doses. (bund.de)
Mycotoxins greatly resist decomposition or being broken down in digestion, so they remain in the food chain in meat and dairy products. (hcmionline.com)
A case study analyzing six cases of dog poisoning by penitrem A has demonstrated different effects this mycotoxin can have on the animal, depending on the ingested amounts of contaminated food and treatment of the poisoning. (bustmold.com)
This grayish-green fungus often contaminates various types of foods by producing several mycotoxins. (bustmold.com)
Health3
Current surveillance indicates widespread mycotoxin contamination of primary and processed plant products with global implications for human health. (cabi.org)
Although mycotoxins may be graded according to acute lethality tests, the major concerns in human health relate to epidemiological evidence. (cabi.org)
Mycotoxins may compromise health by modulating other disorders. (cabi.org)
Studies3
Studies on mycotoxins show that there are three ways to preventing them from contaminating feed. (wikipedia.org)
Current studies focus on molecular and biochemical dimensions, particularly in the context of mycotoxin-induced carcinogenesis. (cabi.org)
RESULTS: We included 19 studies (EUS: n = 11, EUS-B: n = 6, both: n = 2), covering 1712 patients. (bvsalud.org)
Production1
Consequently, host-pathogen interactions are important components in mycotoxin production. (cabi.org)
Common1
The most common mycotoxin is aflatoxin. (wikipedia.org)
Important1
The way the crops are stored after harvesting also plays an important role in staying mycotoxin free. (wikipedia.org)
Found1
It is found as a contaminant of a wide range of commodities including beverages such as beer and wine. (hcmionline.com)
RESULTS1
RESULTS: Ten AE-ILD-UIP patients and 10 matched ARDS were included. (bvsalud.org)
