The effect of fungicides on the production of aflatoxin by Aspergillus flavus IMI 89717, diacetoxyscirpenol and zearalenone by Fusarium graminearum was studied. In a yeast extract-sucrose medium, dicloran, iprodione and vinclozolin fungicides significantly inhibited mycelial growth of A. flavus at

2,6-Dichloro-4-nitroaniline (dicloran) is a mutagenic aromatic amine used as an agricultural fungicide and in the synthesis of disperse dyes. It is a known mutagen (Salmonella/microsome assay) in strains TA98 and TA100. Dicloran was initially detected, but not quantified, in the

The metabolism of 2,6-dichloro-4-nitroaniline (DCNA) to a unique denitrosated product, 3,5-dichloro-p-aminophenol (DCAP), was investigated in rat hepatic microsomes using an HPLC system containing a reverse-phase column and an electrochemical detector. The parent compound appears to induce its own metabolism. The
