Immunological Analysis of Mycotoxins

  • Chapter
Plant Toxin Analysis

Part of the book series: Modern Methods of Plant Analysis ((MOLMETHPLANT,volume 13))

Abstract

Mycotoxins are a chemically diverse group of compounds produced as secondary metabolites of certain fungi that may commonly infest agricultural produce. These compounds can cause illnesses or death in animals or man consuming contaminated commodities. Furthermore, animal products used as human food such as milk, dairy products, meat and eggs, may become contaminated with mycotoxins if contaminated feed is consumed by the producing animal; for reviews see Purchase (1974), Bullerman (1986), Schlatter (1988), Van Egmond (1989a) and Pestka (1988). The chemical structures of some of the mycotoxins of greatest current interest are illustrated in Fig. 1.
