Contamination of feed with trichothecenes, a group of Fusarium mycotoxins, leads to losses in performance due to their immunosupressive effects and the negative effect on the gastrointestinal system in animal production. A possible way of detoxification is microbial degradation, which

Several species of fungi, which infect cereals and grains, can produce a class of compounds, known as trichothecene mycotoxins, which is characterized by a substituted epoxy-trichothecene ring structure. Cattle are susceptible to intoxication from feeds contaminated with T-2 toxin, one

The stabilities of tritium-labeled T-2, HT-2, and T-2 tetraol were studied in blood and urine at -70 degrees, 4 degrees, and 23 degrees C for 6 months in the presence of EDTA or NaF. Samples were counted with a radiochromatographic

1. The urinary metabolites of T-2 toxin were identified and analysed quantitatively after i.v. administration to dogs. 2. A new routine assay for T-2 tetraol was developed and a pharmacokinetic study was carried out on this final hydrolytic metabolite of
Applied and environmental microbiology, 50(3), 676-679 (1985-09-01)
3'-Hydroxy HT-2 toxin and T-2 tetraol, in vivo metabolites of T-2 toxin, were orally administered to Wistar rats, and four metabolites having a trichothec-9,12-diene nucleus, which were termed deepoxytrichothecenes, were newly found in the excreta. Their structures were confirmed as
