ABSTRACT Beauvericin is a cyclohexadepsipeptide mycotoxin which has insecticidal properties and can induce apoptosis in mammalian cells. produced by some entomo- phytopathogenic Fusarium species ( proliferatum , F. semitectum subglutinans ) occurs naturally on corn corn-based foods feeds infected spp. We tested 94 isolates belonging to 25 taxa, 21 6 of the 12 sections genus 4 that have been described recently, for ability produce beauvericin. was following (with number toxigenic strains...
Zearalenone is a mycotoxin produced by some Fusarium species in food and feed. From global perspective, mycotoxins may be considered as metabolites of particular importance to animal health productivity. The aim this review collect summarise information concerning the properties zearalenone, its derivatives their biotransformation. Data on occurrence toxicity zearalenone comparison analytical methods used identification quantification will also discussed. As our awareness understanding risks...
The chemical composition of wood depends on many factors, including plant growth conditions. Among the dangerous elements it was decided in this study to select arsenic various forms: As(III), As(V) and cacodylic acid (DMAA), as well concentrations mutual combinations. experiment conducted 1-year old elm seedlings planted pots with an addition Knop medium arsenic. Supplementation substrate each form caused changes contents cellulose lignin extractive substances those soluble 1% NaOH. Arsenic...
Abstract The principal aim of this study was to estimate the formation fumonisins (FB1 and FB2), moniliformin (MON), ergosterol (ERG) by Fusarium oxysporum proliferatum, while beauvericin (BEA) estimated latter species only. Moreover, effect temperature on biosynthesis mycotoxins also evaluated. Fumonisins were formed F. with highest yield at 18°C (720.0–1976.6 µg g−1 for FB1, 74.2–670.8 FB2) only three four strains a very low level (0.02–4.77 0.02–2.15 FB2). amount MON proliferatum (p <...
The aim of this study was to evaluate Cd, Co, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sr and Zn accumulation in six edible mushroom species assess their risk benefits human consumers. Mushrooms (Leccinium aurantiacum, Xerocomus badius, Lactarius deliciosus, Boletus edulis, Cantharellus cibarius Suillus luteus) were collected from selected regions Poland during 1990-2010. highest diversity between studied observed terms Cu accumulation. Significant differences the efficiency found among examined. most efficient...
Deoxynivalenol is also known as vomitoxin due to its impact on livestock through interference with animal growth and acceptance of feed. At the molecular level, deoxynivalenol disrupts normal cell function by inhibiting protein synthesis via binding ribosome activating critical cellular kinases involved in signal transduction related proliferation, differentiation apoptosis. Because concerns deoxynivalenol, United States FDA has instituted advisory levels 5 µg/g for grain products most feeds...
Essential oils are volatile compounds, extracted from plants, which have a strong odor. These compounds known for their antibacterial and antifungal properties. However, data concerning degradation of mycotoxins by these metabolites very limited. The aim the present study was to investigate effect essential (cedarwood, cinnamon leaf, bark, white grapefruit, pink lemon, eucalyptus, palmarosa, mint, thymic, rosemary) on zearalenone (ZEA) reduction under various in vitro conditions, including...
Fusarium crookwellense KF748 (NRRL A-28100) (isolated from dry rotted potato tubers in Central Poland) produced six mycotoxins on both rice and corn substrates at 25 degrees C. The metabolites detected were zearalenone, alpha-trans-zearalenol, beta-trans-zearalenol, fusarin C, the trichothecenes fusarenone X nivalenol. This is first report of formation X, nivalenol by F. crookwellense.
This study compares the susceptibility of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars to Fusarium head blight (FHB) and accumulation mycotoxins in kernels chaff under different climatic conditions two locations–Cerekwica near Poznan (Central West Poland) Sitaniec, Zamosc, Lublin region (South East Poland). Very high variations were found concentrations (zearalenone, ZEA; nivalenol, NIV; deoxynivalenol, DON; moniliformin, MON) examined fractions: Fusarium-damaged (FDK) healthy looking (HLK)...
Thirty single-spore isolates of a toxigenic fungus, Fusarium oxysporum, were isolated from asparagus spears and identified by species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF) sequence analysis. In the examined sets F. oxysporum isolates, DNA sequences mating type genes (MAT) identified. The distribution MAT idiomorph may suggest that MAT1-2 is predominant in population. mainly recognised as producer moniliformin-the highly toxic secondary metabolite....
Mushrooms are known to accumulate various concentrations of different arsenic (As) species depending on the metalloid residue level in substrate. These toxicity humans and may represent a significant health problem. In present study, edible fungal (Agaricus bisporus, Pleurotus ostreatus, eryngii Hericium erinaceus) grown separately substrate containing As (As(III), As(V) dimethylarsinic acid—DMA; each form individually) at (0.1–0.8 mM) exhibited accumulation total As, lowest being A. b...
Zn caused an increase of photosynthesis activity, carbohydrates and chlorophyll at the level 1–2.5 mM, while phenols revealed a continuous together with in medium. The aim present study was to determine effect various application levels on some physiological, morphological biochemical parameters hybrid Salix purpurea × triandra viminalis 2. Plants were cultivated under control conditions range 0–5 mM. effects net rate (P N), stomatal conductance (g s), transpiration (E), intercellular CO2 (C...
Zearalenone and its metabolites, α-zearalenol β-zearalenol, demonstrate estradiol-like activity disrupt physiological functions in animals. This article evaluates the carryover of zearalenone selected metabolites from digesta to intestinal walls (along entire intestines) pre-pubertal gilts exposed low doses over long periods time. The term “carryover” describes transfer mycotoxins feed edible tissues, it was used assess risk mycotoxin exposure for consumers. experimental with body weight up...
