Urine tests show the presence of AFB-N7-guanine, which is utilized as an exposure biomarker in epidemiological research. Because they lack the 8,9 double bond, AFG2 and AFB2 are less physiologically active. AFB1-8,9-epoxide promptly inserts into the DNA in comparison to AFG1, resulting in...
Aflatoxins have been found in the urine of liver disease patients in Zaria, in Blood in Southern Nigeria, in organs of children who died of kwashiorkor in Western Nigeria, and in human semen in Benin city (Onyemelukwe 1992, Oluyide 1993, Adegoke et al. 1996 and Oluwafemi 2005). Similarly...
This was also previously reported for the hydroxylated metabolite detected at a higher rate in urine samples [46]. 4. Future Perspectives and Conclusions This study offers new insights into the reduction and mitigation of mycotoxin levels in biscuits using dietary fibers. The color test demonstrated...
Although studies about the exposure to mycotoxins in indoor environment are rare, OTA was detected in the urine of occupants in water-damaged buildings and associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis [60]. Furthermore, all of the identified species may be associated with infections, including ...
This can be overcome by the analysis of biological matrices (e.g., plasma, urine, faeces), since the mycotoxin concentration may be more constant and information about the exposure of the animal on an individual level is possible. The presented methods aim to detect mycotoxins and their in ...
