Biosynthetic relationship among aflatoxins B1, B2, M1, and M2.
Aflatoxins are a family of toxic, acetate-derived decaketides that arise biosynthetically through polyhydroxyanthraquinone intermediates. Most studies have assumed that aflatoxin B1 is the biosynthetic precursor of the other aflatoxins. We used a strain of Aspergillus flavus which accumulates aflatoxin B2 to investigate the later stages of aflatoxin biosynthesis. This strain produced aflatoxins...
متن کاملAspergillus flavus and aflatoxins B1, B2, and M1 in corn associated with equine death.
Corn from an Arkansas farm, where three horses died and others became sick, was investigated for causative principles. Necropsy of the three horses revealed what appeared to be severe hepatic necrosis. Histopathological examination indicated a pattern of hepatic lesions that was suggestive of aflatoxin contamination of the feed. Mycological examination of the corn by dilution plating revealed 9...
متن کاملInvestigation of Non-Covalent Interactions of Aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2, and M1) with Serum Albumin
Aflatoxins are widely spread mycotoxins produced mainly by Aspergillus species. Consumption of aflatoxin-contaminated foods and drinks causes serious health risks for people worldwide. It is well-known that the reactive epoxide metabolite of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) forms covalent adducts with serum albumin. However, non-covalent interactions of aflatoxins with human serum albumin (HSA) are poorly c...
متن کاملIsolation, structural elucidation and biological properties of neoenactins B1, B2, M1 and M2, neoenactin congeners.
The structures of three neoenactin congeners, designated as neoenactins B1, B2 and M2 were elucidated by 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectroscopic studies. Another minor component, neoenactin M1, isolated from the crude mixture, was identified as lipoxamycin. All three new compounds were structurally related to neoenactin A. While B1 was proved to be a positional isomer of B2, M2 was found to be a ...
متن کاملDetermination of aflatoxins B1 and B2 using ion mobility spectrometry.
This paper describes total determination of aflatoxins B1 and B2 in pistachio samples using corona discharge ion mobility spectrometry (IMS). A new injection port was designed to introduce liquid samples into the IMS. Using this port, the liquid solvent (methanol) containing standard aflatoxins or an extracted sample was directly introduced into the injection port. Calibration curves resulting ...
