Ten chemicals were assessed for blastomogenic activity in adult wts/+ heterozygotes of D. melanogaster. All of the strong mammalian carcinogens tested (benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P), pyrene, aflatoxin B1, 2-acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF) and cis-dichlorodihydroxydiamminoplatinum IV) were also shown to be strong Drosophila blastomogens. They induced several times more tumors than their counterparts that are less carcinogenic for mammals (4-acetylaminofluorene (4-AAF), aflatoxins B2 and G2) and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(-3-pyridine)-1-butanone (NNK). Benzo(e)pyrene (B(e)P) and pyrene demonstrated minor effects. Most tumors were localized on the wing and notum, which are the derivatives of the wing disc. Humeri derived from dorsal prothoracic disc and the abdominal tergites and sternites had the lowest number of tumors. The tumor frequency in the cross of the wild type females with wtsP2/TM6B males was different from that in the reciprocal cross. The former type of cross exhibited consistently higher tumor frequency both in the experimental and control series. 相似文献

Aflatoxin B1-2,3-oxide: evidence for its formation in rat liver in vivo and by human liver microsomes in vitro 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Injection of [3H]aflatoxin B1 into rats yielded covalently bound derivatives in hepatic DNA, rRNA, and protein. Mild acid hydrolysis of the DNA and rRNA adducts formed a derivative indistinguishable from 2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxy-aflatoxin B1. The data indicate that approximately 60% of the nucleic acid adducts were derived from reactions with aflatoxin B1-2,3-oxide. Acid hydrolysis of rRNA-[3Haflatoxin B1 adduct formed by human liver microsomes also liberated the dihydrodiol in significant amount. The 2,3-oxide of aflatoxin B1 is a probable ultimate carcinogenic metabolite. 相似文献

The results presented in this report demonstrate that an 18–20 hour exposure/3H-thymidine DNA labeling period is superior to a 4 hour incubation interval for general genotoxicity screening studies in the rat primary hepatocyte DNA repair assay. When DNA damaging agents which give rise to bulky-type DNA base adducts such as 2-acetylaminofluorene, aflatoxin Bi and benzidine were evaluated, little or no difference was observed between the 4 hour or an 18–20 hour exposure/labeling period. Similar results were also noted for the DNA ethylating agent diethylnitrosamine. However, when DNA damaging chemicals which produce a broader spectrum of DNA lesions were studied, differences in the amount of DNA repair as determined by autoradiographic analysis did occur. Methyl methanesulfonate and dimethylnitrosamine induced repairable DNA damage that was detected at lower dose levels with the 18–20 hour exposure/labeling period. Similar results were also observed for the DNA cross-linking agents, mitomycin C and nitrogen mustard. Ethyl methanesulfonate produced only a marginal amount of DNA repair in primary hepatocytes up to a dose level of 10–3M during the 4 hour incubation period, whereas a substantial amount of DNA repair was detectable at a dose level of 2.5 × 10–4M when the 18–20 hour exposure/labeling period was employed. The DNA alkylating agent 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide, which creates DNA base adducts that are slowly removed from mammalian cell DNA, induced no detectable DNA repair in hepatocytes up to a toxic dose level of 2 × 10–5M with the 4 hour exposure period, whereas a marked DNA repair response was observed at 10–5M when the 18–20 hour exposure/labeling period was used.Abbreviations 2AAF

Transformation of sterigmatocystin and O-methylsterigmatocystin (two metabolic aflatoxin precursors) to aflatoxins by aflatoxigenic and nonaflatoxigenic field isolates of Aspergillus flavus was studied. The 24 nonaflatoxigenic isolates investigated failed to transform both precursors. Among the 8 aflatoxin-producing isolates used, 7 transformed both precursors whereas the remaining failed to transform both. According to these results, the usefulness of the measurement of enzymatic activities related to aflatoxin production in understanding the true status of conflictive field isolates is discussed.Abbreviations ST

Abstract An alternate model for surface noncovalent and surface covalent binding of aflatoxin B1 to N(7) of guanine in DNA is proposed. This model considers the out-of-plane motions of C(8) of aflatoxin B1 in those interactions. The covalent intercalated fit of aflatoxin B1 into DNA arises from steric adjustments made by DNA at the covalent intercalation site as well as local strain in the bond angles about N(7) of guanine and C(8) of aflatoxin B1. The bond angle about N(7) deviates modestly from the sp2 value toward the sp3 value. This study suggests that the surface covalent aflatoxin B1 -DNA complex serves only a minor role in aflatoxin's precarcinogenic interaction with DNA and is a likely correctable error. 相似文献

The aim of the present work was to investigate the production of aflatoxin byAspergillus parasiticus and to find out the possible ways to control it. Of 40 food samples collected from Abha region, Saudi Arabia, only 25% were
contaminated with aflatoxins. Oil-rich commodities had the highly contaminated commodities by fungi and aflatoxins while spices
were free from aflatoxins.Bacillus megatertum andB cereus were suitable for microbiological assay of aflatoxins. Czapek’s-Dox medium was found a suitable medium for isolation of fungi
from food samples. The optimal pH for the growth ofA. parasiticus and its productivity of aflatoxin B1 was found at 6.0, while the best incubation conditions were found at 30°C for 10 days. D-glucose was the best carbon source
for fungal growth, as well as aflatoxin production. Corn steep liquor, yeast extract and peptone were the best nitrogen sources
for both fungal growth and toxin production (NH4)2HPO4 (1.55 gL-1) and NaNO2 (1.6 gL-1) reduced fungal growth and toxin production with 37.7% and 85%, respectively. Of ten amino acids tested, asparagine was the
best for aflatoxin B1 production. Zn2+ and Co2+ supported significantly both fungal growth, as well as, aflatoxin B1 production at the different tested concentrations. Zn2+ was effective when added toA. parasiticus growth medium at the first two days of the culture age. The other tested metal ions expressed variable effects depending
on the type of ion and its concentration. Water activity (aw) was an important factor controlling the growth ofA. parasiticus and toxin production. The minimum aw for the fungal growth was 0.8 on both coffee beans and rice grains, while aw of 0.70 caused complete inhibition for the growth and aflatoxin B1 production. H2O2 is a potent inhibitor for growth ofA. parasiticus and its productivity of toxins. NaHCO3 and C6H5COONa converted aflatoxin B1 to water-soluble form which returned to aflatoxin B1 by acidity. Black pepper, ciliated heath, cuminum and curcuma were the most inhibitory spices on toxin production. Glutathione,
quinine, EDTA, sodium azide, indole acetic acid, 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid, phenol and catechol were inhibitory for
both growth, as well as, aflatoxin B1 production. Stearic acid supported the fungal growth and decreased the productivity of AFB1 gradually. Lauric acid is the most suppressive fatty acid for both fungal growth and aflatoxin production, but oleic acid
was the most potent supporter. Vitamin A supported the growth but inhibited aflatoxin B1 production. Vitamins C and D2 were also repressive particularly for aflatoxin production The present study included studying the activities of some enzymes
in relation to aflatoxin production during 20-days ofA. parasiticus age in 2-days intervals. Glycolytic enzymes and pyruvate-generating enzymes seems to be linked with aflatoxin B1 production. Also, pentose-phosphate pathway enzymes may provide NADPH for aflatoxin B1 synthesis. The decreased activities of TCA cycle enzymes particularly from 4th day of growth up to 10th day were associated
with the increase of aflatoxin B1 production. All the tested enzymes as well as aflatoxin B1 production were inhibited by either catechol or phenol. 相似文献

Summary A convenient miniassay for aflatoxin has been developed for cultures ofAspergillus flavus andA. parasiticus grown for 3–10 days in 10 ml of a coconut extract medium. The sensitivity of the assay, as measured by photofluorometry (365 nm maximum excitation; 445 nm maximum emission), is of the order of 0.01 M (3.12 ng/ml) for aflatoxin B1 dissolved in aqueous iodine (0.26 mM). High performance liquid chromatography, monitored by fluorometric analysis of both an aflatoxin B1 standard and selected culture filtrates, confirmed the sensitivity of the assay and indicated specificity for iodine-enhanced fluorescence of aflatoxin in the coconut extract medium. Thin layer chromatography further confirmed the aflatoxin titers and the specificity for enhancement of aflatoxins B1 and G1 in culture filtrates.Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station Journal No. 6-871297. 相似文献

Summary The mutagenicity and mutagenic specificity of aflatoxin B1 and G1 were studied with the adenine-3 (ad-3) test system of Neurospora crassa. Aflatoxin B1 and G1 failed to show mutagenicity in resting conidia, but both agents were mutagenic in growing vegetative cultures. The frequencies of ad-3 mutants induced by aflatoxin B1 and G1 (40g/ml) were 70.7x10-6 survivors and 9.6x10-6 survivors, respectively. Since aflatoxin B1 gave a 177-fold increase over the spontaneous mutation frequency it is a rather potent mutagen, whereas aflatoxin G1 gave only a 24-fold increase and so is only moderately mutagenic.Genetic analyses of ad-3 mutants induced by aflatoxin B1 and G1 indicate that both agents induce a low frequency of multilocus deletions. The spectra of point mutations at the ad-3A and ad-3B loci induced by aflatoxin B1 and G1 are not distinguishable from each other. Hence both agents probably induce the same relative frequencies of genetic alterations. The frequencies of leakiness, allelic complementation, and classes of complementation patterns among the ad-3 mutants induced by both agents are higher than the frequencies among ICR-170-induced mutants and somewhat lower than those among NA- and AP-induced mutants. The results of reversion tests with NA, MNNG, and ICR-170 indicate that in addition to multilocus deletion, aflatoxin B1-induced ad-3 mutants consist of frameshifts, base-pair transitions, and possibly other types of intragenic alterations. 相似文献

The mei-41 gene of Drosophila melanogaster plays an essential role in meiosis, in the maintenance of somatic chromosome stability, in postreplication repair and in DNA double-strand break repair. This gene has been cytogenetically localized to polytene chromosome bands 14C4-6 using available chromosomal aberrations. About 60 kb of DNA sequence has been isolated following a bidirectional chromosomal walk that extends over the cytogenetic interval 14C1-6. The breakpoints of chromosomal aberrations identified within that walk establish that the entire mei-41 gene has been cloned. Two independently derived mei-41 mutants have been shown to carry P insertions within a single 2.2 kb fragment of the walk. Since revertants of those mutants have lost the P element sequences, an essential region of the mei-41 gene is present in that fragment. A 10.5 kb genomic fragment that spans the P insertion sites has been found to restore methyl methanesulfonate resistance and female fertility of the mei-41
D3 mutants. The results demonstrate that all the sequences required for the proper expression of the mei-41 gene are present on this genomic fragment. This study provides the foundation for molecular analysis of a function that is essential for chromosome stability in both the germline and somatic cells.This Paper is dedicated to the memory of Professor James B.

A study has been carried out in Argentina on samples of corn genotypes from a breeding station as well as in commercially available corn meal. All samples were analyzed for fungal infection and aflatoxin B1.Mycological analysis of corn genotypes showed the presence of three principal genera of filamentous fungi Fusarium (100%), Penicillium (67%) and Aspergillus (60%). In the genus Fusarium three species were identified, F. moniliforme (42%), F. nygamai (56%) andF. proliferatum (1.8%). Eight species ofPenicillium were identified, the predominant species isolated were P. minioluteum, P. funiculosum and P. variabile. In the genus ranked third in isolation frequency, two species were identified, A. flavus and A. parasiticus, the percentage of infection was 78% and 21%, respectively. Only one corn genotype was contaminated with aflatoxin B1 at a level of 5 ppb. The cornmeal samples showed great differences in fungal contamination, the values ranging from 1 × 101 to 7 × 105 cfu g–1. Fusarium (68%), Aspergillus (35%) and Penicillium (21%) were the most frequent genera isolated. Among the genus, Aspergillus, A. parasiticus (38%) was the most frequent species isolated. All the samples of corn meal were negative to aflatoxin B1. These results indicate a low degree of human exposure to aflatoxins in Argentina through the ingestion of maize or corn meal.This revised version was published online in October 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

The luncheon meat samples analyzed, which were produced locally by the two main luncheon meat producing companies in Egypt
were relatively highly contaminated either by moulds and yeasts in general, aflatoxigenic species and aflatoxin residues in
particular. The most frequently encountered fungi from the samples were yeasts, Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, Penicillium chrysogenum, Rhizopus stolonifer, Mucor circinelloides. Less common were Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Alternaria alternata, Mycosphaerella tassiana, P. aurantiogriseum and P. oxalicum. The most important aflatoxigenic species, A. flavus, was isolated frequently. It was 10% of the total fungal isolates from both samples of the two companies. Seven luncheon
meat samples out of 50 analyzed were positive for aflatoxin B1 or B1 and G1, while all samples were negative for aflatoxins B2, G2, M1 and M2. Aflatoxin B1 was detected only in 4 and 3 samples out of 25 analyzed from each of company A and B, respectively. The highest detectable
level, 11.1 ppb, was recorded in a sample from company B and the least, 0.5 ppb, in a sample from company A. Aflatoxin G1, at concentration of 3.2 ppb, was detected in only one sample of the aflatoxin B1 – contaminated 3 samples of company B: this sample also had the highest level of aflatoxin B1. Some luncheon meat samples had higher numbers of aflatoxigenic A. flavus than others, however these samples were negative for aflatoxins. The hazardous potential of such contamination will be discussed.

The effects of various metabolites on the two most common phosphoglucomutase allozymes (PGMA and PGMB) in Drosophila melanogaster have been investigated in vitro. 2,3-Diphosphoglycerate (2,3DPG) inhibited PGMA and PGMB to the same degree in the presence of 25 µM glucose-1,6-diphosphate (G1, 6P2). However a higher concentration of G1,6P2 partially reversed the inhibition of PGMA exerted by 2,3DPG, so that in the presence of 150 µM G1,6P2 the inhibition of PGMA was half that of PGMB at pH 6.0. Glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) had no significant effect at pH 7.4 but exerted an activating effect at pH 6.0 which was more pronounced in the case of PGMB. ATP, citrate, and fructose-1, 6-diphosphate (F1,6P2) inhibited both PGMA and PGMB. The differences found in vitro between these two allozymes can have a significant impact on in vivo function and, therefore, on the maintenance of PGM polymorphism in experimental populations of D. melanogaster studied in the laboratory. 相似文献

Colonization of barley grain by Aspergillus flavus and formation of aflatoxin B1 in the presence of Penicillium verrucosum, Fusarium sporotrichioides, and Hyphopichia burtonii were studied over a three-week period in all combinations of 20 or 30 °C and 0.97, 0.95 or 0.90 aw. Grain colonization was assessed initially by observing hyphal extension on the grain surface, using scanning electron microscopy, and then from the proportion of seeds infected and numbers of colony forming units (cfu) formed. Aflatoxin b1 concentrations were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay using a monoclonal antibody. These studies showed that interaction between A. flavus and other fungi in paired culture had different effects on both colonization and aflatoxin formation depending on the species involved and environmental conditions. Germination of A. flavus spores was unaffected by the presence of other species on the grain surface. Subsequently, three principal patterns of A. flavus colonization of barley grain were observed through the incubation period in the presence of other fungal species: (a) colonization unaffected by the presence of other species; (b) colonization initially slower in the presence of other species but later differing little from pure cultures; and (c) colonization adversely affected by the presence of other species. Five main patterns of aflatoxin B1 production were observed relative to pure culture but with no consistent relationship with species, aw, temperature or incubation period; (a) little changed; (b) increased slowly; (c) decreased; (d) enhanced; and (e, f) increased initially but later decreased to (e) the same level as in pure culture or (f) to less than in pure culture. Generally, production of aflatoxin B1 by A. flavus was less than in pure culture but sometimes was changed only slightly by the presence of P. verrucosum, F. sporotrichioides or H. burtonii or was temporarily enhanced. 相似文献

Summary Degradation of aflatoxin B1 byCorynebacterium rubrum and byAspergillus niger was analysed by adding14C-labeled aflatoxin B1 to cultures of these microorganisms. Two blue fluorescent compounds, formed byA. niger from aflatoxin B1 with Rf-values 0.42 and 0.48 (Rf of aflatoxin B1=0.54) were accumulated and characterized by UV-, fluorescence and mass spectrometry. Based on their properties both products were identified to be aflatoxin Ro. Under the same conditionsMucor ambiguus andTrichoderma viride also produced aflatoxin Ro. 相似文献

An investigation was undertaken to obtain data on the occurrence of aflatoxins and the aflatoxin producing potential of Aspergillus flavus strains isolated from dry fruit slices of quinces produced in jammu and Kashmir, India. A total of 147 A. flavus isolates recovered from dr fruit slices were grown in liquid rice flour medium and screened for the production of various aflatoxins by thin layer chromatography. The results showed that 23.14% of the tested isolates were aflatoxigenic, producing aflatoxins B1and B2 in varying amounts. Aflatoxins G1 and G2 were not detected. All 25 of the investigated market samples were also found to be aflatoxin B1 positive and the level of contamination ranged from 96 to 8164 g/kg of the dry fruit which is quite high in comparison to the permissible level of 30 ppb. As per these results biochemical composition of dry fruit slices of quinces, along with climatic conditions seem to be very favourable for aflatoxin production by the toxigenic A. flavus strains. Therefore,monitoring of aflatoxins in dry fruit slices of quincesis recommended for this region.This revised version was published online in October 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

Figs in an orchard were inoculated with an aflatoxigenicAspergillus flavus strain in two ways by spore injection or by dusting at three maturation stages: firm ripe, shrivelled, and dried. Fruits were individually examined for fungal development and analyzed for aflatoxin B1 (AF B1) after 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 days. Fruit injected at the first stage showed fungal development and AF B1 contamination within two days. The toxin level increased sharply to 1 ppm after 10 days. The mean level of AF B1 (284.75 ng/g) was significantly higher than those observed in other conditions. Figs dusted at the first stage showed only a tiny fungal growth even after 10 days. AF B1 appeared after 6 days with a low frequency (35%), mean level (7.6 ng/g) and a great variation among figs (0.22–15 ng/g). Among fruits inoculated during the shrivelled fig and dried fruit stages, no fungal growth was observed and AF B1 was detected with a lower incidence in association with low mean levels (less than 1.25 ng/g). Methods of prevention of aflatoxin contamination at the critical step, the firm ripe stage, are discussed. 相似文献

To evaluate the rate at which the four main aflatoxins (aflatoxins B1, B2, G1 and G2) are able to cross the luminal membrane of the rat small intestine, a study about intestinal absorption kinetics of these mycotoxins has been made. In situ results obtained showed that the absorption of aflatoxins in rat small intestine is a very fast process that follows first-order kinetics, with an absorption rate constant (k

Deterioration of raw materials of six medicinal plants viz. Terminalia arjuna, Acorus calamus, Rauvolfia serpentina, Holarrhena antidysenterica, Withania somnifera and Boerhaavia diffusa was examined. Some of the contaminated raw materials were found to be deteriorated by toxigenic strains of Aspergillus flavus and contain aflatoxin B1 (41.0–95.4 μg kg−1) which is above the permissible limit. Essential oil of Cymbopogon flexuosus and its components was found efficient in checking fungal growth and aflatoxin production. C. flexuosus essential oil absolutely inhibited the growth of A. flavus and aflatoxin B1 production at 1.3 μl ml−1 and 1.0 μl ml−1 respectively. The individual oil components were more efficacious than the Cymbopogon oil as such which emphasizes masking of their efficacy when combined together. Eugenol exhibited potent antifungal and aflatoxin inhibitory activity at 0.3 μl ml−1 and 0.1 μl ml−1 respectively. Eugenol was found superior over some prevalent synthetic antimicrobials and exhibited broad fungitoxic spectrum against some biodeteriorating moulds. Prospects of exploitation of the oil and its components as acceptable plant based antimicrobials in qualitative as well as quantitative control of biodeterioration of herbal raw materials have been discussed. 相似文献

A new method for growingAspergllius flavus for experimental studies is presented. The system consists of a humidified vial with a thick septum pierced by a pin on which a glass fiber disc is affixed. The disc contains the test solution and inoculum plus medium. The method has been used to assess the effect of variations in culture conditions on production of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). The AFB1 level was affected by the amount of medium placed on the disc and type of disc material. The results for different types of glass fiber and quartz discs were compared with AFB1 produced by fungus grown in liquid medium or on paper discs. When compared to a liquid medium culture there was a 15 to 20-fold increase in AFB1 for one type of disc. Incubations with less than 14 µl of medium gave satisfactory results. A crude phosphatidylcholine preparation at a concentration of 0.7% of the medium resulted in a 4-fold increase in AFB1.Abbreviations AFB1

The intake of mycotoxin-contaminated feeds can lead to nutrient losses and may have adverse effects on animal health and on
productivity. The aims of this study were (1) to determine the mycobiota present in poultry feed samples, and (2) to evaluate
the natural occurrence of aflatoxin B1, fumonisin B1 and zearalenone. Fungal counts were similar between all culture media tested (103 CFU g−1). The most frequent genus isolated was Penicillium spp. (41.26%) followed by Aspergillus spp. (33.33%) and Fusarium spp. (20.63%). High precision liquid chromatography was applied to quantify aflatoxin B1 and fumonisin B1. Thin layer chromatography was used to determine zearalenone levels. Aflatoxin B1 values ranged between 1.2 and 17.5 μg kg−1. Fumonisin B1 levels ranged between 1.5 and 5.5 μg g−1. Zearalenone levels ranged between 0.1 and 7 μg g−1. The present study shows the simultaneous occurrence of two carcinogenic mycotoxins, aflatoxin B1 and fumonisin B1, together with another Fusarium mycotoxin (zearalenone) in␣feed intended for poultry consumption. Many samples contained AFB1 levels near the permissible maximum and it could affect young animals. A synergistic toxic response is possible in animals
under simultaneous exposure. 相似文献
