trichothecene

But so far no one has determined whether they are of the type that produces the trichothecene toxins.

Myrotoxin B is a macrocyclic trichothecene first isolated in 1985.

Because it is a trichothecene, it has significant toxicity.

However, deoxynivalenol is of concern as it is the most prevalent trichothecene in Europe.

Trichothecene toxicity appears to be an underlying cause of many of these adverse effects.

There is no licensed vaccine in the US to protect against trichothecene mycotoxins.

The term trichothecene is derived from trichothecin, which was the one of the first members of the family identified.

Despite this direct effect, it is possible to measure the toxicokinetics and the metabolism of the trichothecene mycotoxins.

The poisoning symptoms are similar to these observed previously with animals that have consumed trichothecene mycotoxins.

Diacetylverrucarol is a natural trichothecene produced by the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria.

Thus, we can postulate that the trichothecene mycotoxins have molecular capability of direct reaction with cellular components.

When compared to other trichothecene mycotoxins which can form in grains and forages, vomitoxin is relatively mild.

T-2 is a trichothecene mycotoxin.

Meselson's team noted that trichothecene mycotoxins occur naturally in the region and questioned the witness testimony.

The fungus contains several trichothecene mycotoxins.

Some molds that produce trichothecene mycotoxins, such as Stachybotrys chartarum, can grow in damp indoor environments.

Structures of some of the Commoner Trichothecene Mycotoxins.

Vomitoxin, also known as deoxynivalenol (DON), is a type B trichothecene, an epoxy-sesquiterpenoid.

Although initially thought to be potentially useful as anticancer therapeutics, numerous examples of trichothecene derivatives were shown to be too toxic for clinical use.

F. pseudograminearum produces the trichothecene mycotoxin DON, which spreads throughout the plant stem and builds up in the tissue.

Another concern is that under certain conditions, Fusarium venenatum can produce poisons called trichothecene mycotoxins, which can cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

The trichothecene (T-2) mycotoxins are a group of over 40 compounds produced by fungi of the genus Fusarium, a common grain mold.

After direct dermal application or oral ingestion, the trichothecene mycotoxins can cause rapid irritation to the skin or intestinal mucosa.

There are two chemotypes in S. chartarum, one that produce trichothecene mycotoxins including satratoxins and one that produce atranones.

Verrucarin A is classified as a type D trichothecene based on its substitution pattern in the 12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene (EPT) core structure.
