Analysis of Ergot Alkaloids
The principles and application of established and newer methods for the quantitative and semi-quantitative determination of ergot alkaloids in food, feed, plant materials and animal tissues are reviewed. The techniques of sampling, extraction, clean-up, detection, quantification and validation are described. The major procedures for ergot alkaloid analysis comprise liquid chromatography with ta...
متن کاملPrevalence of ergot toxicity
International Poultry Production — Volume 14 Number 1 Ergot toxicity or ergotism is caused by ingestion of cereal or grass grains infected by the fungus Claviceps purpurea. The toxic agents (alkaloids) are produced by the fungus Claviceps purprea which attacks the embryo of the developing kernel forming a sclerotium, a black tangle of vegetative fungal strands. The sclerotium may contain more t...
متن کاملThe Milk-clotting Action of Papain*
Although the milk-clotting action of papain has been recognized for many years, this property of the enzyme has received little quantitative attention. It appears to be, however, a characteristic property of the proteolytic component of this enzyme system. Various workers have brought forth evidence as to the composite nature of the papain system, which has at least two components. In the most ...
متن کاملThe History of Ergot
Years ago a review on ergot alkaloids (EA) appeared with the title: “The biosynthesis of ergot alkaloids; the story of the unexpected” (Floss, 1980). I don’t believe that any other title could be more appropriate since the entire history of EA research, from the discovery of ergotamine almost a century ago until the present, has truly been the history of the unexpected. The beginning of modern ...
متن کاملBiosynthetic Pathways of Ergot Alkaloids
Ergot alkaloids are nitrogen-containing natural products belonging to indole alkaloids. The best known producers are fungi of the phylum Ascomycota, e.g., Claviceps, Epichloë, Penicillium and Aspergillus species. According to their structures, ergot alkaloids can be divided into three groups: clavines, lysergic acid amides and peptides (ergopeptines). All of them share the first biosynthetic st...
