How Crickets Can "Upcycle" Bad Grain Into Useful Animal Feed Mycotoxins contaminate grain on a global scale where they cause the devaluation of agricultural products and create health risks for the consumer. Fumonisins are one such class of mycotoxin. Produced by Fusarium verticillioides, a ubiquitous fungus in corn, fumonisins’ economic impact can be signifi...
Developments in analytical techniques for mycotoxin determination: an update for 2022-23 This review summarizes developments published in the period from mid-2022 to mid-2023 on the analysis of a variety of matrices for mycotoxins. Important developments in all aspects of mycotoxin analysis, from sampling and quality assurance/quality control of analytical results, to the various detect...
Mycotoxin contamination and nutritional content of corn
Mycotoxin-contaminated corn can pose a feed safety risk to poultry health and decrease production performance. Although mycotoxin regulatory guidelines are based on individual mycotoxin-contamination, feed and feed ingredients are often contaminated with multiple mycotoxins. Therefore, the objectiv...
Does alteration of fumonisin production in Fusarium verticillioides lead to volatolome variation? The maize pathogen Fusarium verticillioides is the most prominent cause of contamination of maize with fumonisins, one of the mycotoxin families of most concern to food and feed safety. We compared emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by a wild-type, fumonisin-producing strain of F. vertici...
Effects of destruxin a on hemocytes of the domestic silkworm, bombyx mori Destruxin A (DA) is a mycotoxin isolated from the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae which has demonstrated inhibitory activity against various insect species. However, the mechanism of inhibition on target sites in insects remains unknown. In this research, the dose-response relationshi...
Development of a method to separate toxic compounds from fungal pathogens in hemp Among the fungal pathogens being identified on hemp are Fusarium graminearum, known to produce mycotoxins on grains. Mycotoxins produced include deoxynivalenol (DON). Because DON can be harmful to both humans and livestock, and tight regulations exist on allowable amounts in the food supply, the det...
Predictive models to manage mycotoxin outbreaks in the USA Mycotoxin contamination of corn results in significant agroeconomic losses and poses serious health issues worldwide. We utilized machine learning and historical aflatoxin and fumonisin contamination levels in-order-to develop models that can confidently predict mycotoxin contamination of corn in Il...
