The recovery rate is 97 7% while the moniliformin content in the sample is 8 8 mg/g. In comparison with different methods of detoxifying moniliformin in water, the best antidote is chlorinated lime. 1 5 mg active chlorine in chlorinated lime was required to detoxify 1 mg moniliformin. 5% H 2O 2 spray was the best way for detoxifying moniliformin in grains. These two methods are convenient, economic and with no secondary pollution. They can be used for preventing human and livestock from the toxicity of moniliformin.展开更多

Methods： Human chondrocytes were isolated and cultured on bone matrix gelatin to form an artificial cartilage model in vitro with or without MON toxin. Cell viability was determined by 3-（4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide （MTT） assay. The expression of aggrecan and type II collagen in the cartilage was determined using immunocytochemical staining. Results： MON toxin inhibited chondrocyte viability in dose-dependent and time-dependent manners. MON reduced aggrecan and type Ⅱ collagen syntheses in the tissue-engineered cartilage. MON also increased the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 （MMP-1）, MMP-13, BC4 epitopes, and CD44 in cartilages. However, the expression of 3B3（-） epitopes in cartilages was inhibited by MON. Selenium partially alleviated the damage of aggrecan induced by MON toxin. Conclusion： MON toxin promoted the catabolism of aggrecan and type II collagen in human chondrocytes.展开更多
Eight Fusarium species i.e. F. subglutinans, F. solani, F. oxyspoum, F. sterilihyphosum, F. proliferatum, F. monili-forme, F. avena and F. chlamydspore isolated from mango malformed disease were tested for their abili...Eight Fusarium species i.e. F. subglutinans, F. solani, F. oxyspoum, F. sterilihyphosum, F. proliferatum, F. monili-forme, F. avena and F. chlamydspore isolated from mango malformed disease were tested for their ability to cause mango malformation disease and their production of moniliformin and total fumonisins (FB1 + FB2) using HPLC. A evaluated for moniliformin production, seven isolates were toxin producers, the production levels ranging from 0.51 to 8.90 μg/ml. The higher levels were produced by Fusarium subglutinans (8.51 μg/ml). Moderate concentrations of moniliformin was produced by F.moniliforme (6.90 μg/ml), F. oxysporum (6.30 μg/ml), F. proliferatum (4.10 μg/ml) and F. sterilihyphosum (1.10 μg/ml). Separation and identification of Fumonisin that was isolated from the pathogen- causing disease are made by (HPLC). A evaluated for total fumonisin production (FB1 + FB2), seven isolates were toxin producers, the production levels ranging from 0.10 to 8.30 μg/ml. The higher levels were produced by F. monili-forme (8.30 μg/ml. Moderate concentrations of fumonisin was produced by F .proliferatum (0.64 μg/ml) and F. subglutinans (0.50 μg/ml). Strong positive correlations between moniliformin and total fumonisins (FB1 + FB2) activities and malformation disease incidence by F. subglutinans, F. solani, F. oxyspoum, F. sterilihyphosum, F. proliferatum was observed.展开更多

The amounts or DNA in chondrocytesand glucuronate in matrix were measured. And the chondrocytes were observed by inversion microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results showed that the cultured chondrocytes were damaged by all the six mycotoxinsl and the synthesis of DNA and the divided reproductionof chondrocytes were restrained; the damage errect was more evident, esl,ecially in the early stage ofculturel the higher concentration or toxin in the media was used, the lower density of the culturalckondrocytes was observed; the cells were even round damaged and dead, so long as the media contolued toxin.
