The purpose of this work was to determine the mycoflora and mycotoxins natural incidence in poultry feeds from 2 factories in Río Cuarto, Córdoba. One hundred and thirty samples were taken from May/1996 to May/1997. The most dominant species isolated of poultry feed samples belonged to the genera Aspergillus spp 85% and Fusarium spp 70%. From Aspergillus genus eleven species were identified and A. flavus was the most frequent. Nine species were identified from the Fusarium genus and the predominant was F. moniliforme. Penicillium ranked third in the number of isolated cases. From this genus twelve species were collected of which P. brevicompactum (15%), P. restrictum (14%) and P. purpurogenum (12%) were the most common.The most significant mycotoxin from poultry feeds was aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) found in 48% of the samples, with levels ranging from 10 to 123 ng/g. For zearalenone (ZEA) the levels were 327 to 5,850 ng/g and DON was not detected from the samples. Due to the fact that in Argentina there is little information about this topic, these data on poultry feeds in our region would be of worldwide interest.This revised version was published online in October 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date. 相似文献

A sensitive and selective method for the quantification of mycophenolate mofetil and its active metabolite mycophenolic acid in different human skin layers after dermal administration is presented. The skin layers were separated after in vitro penetration experiments and a methanolic extraction was performed. Positive ion electrospray HPLC–MS in selected ion monitoring mode was used to quantify the substances after isocratic separation by a C18 analytical column. The minimum detectable concentrations were 850 pg/ml for MMF and 1 ng/ml for MPA. The peak areas depended linearly on the concentration of both drugs over the range of 25–1000 ng/ml (r2≥0.996) with accuracy ≤9.8% and precision ≤13.2%. Total imprecision at quantification limits was 15.2% at 10 ng/ml and 16.3% at 1500 ng/ml for MMF and 15.1% at 21.0 ng/ml and 17.5% at 1300 ng/ml for MPA. This HPLC–MS method will be applicable to the profiling of MMF amounts in skin and its conversion to MPA after application of different formulations. 相似文献

Due to infections with moulds already in the vineyards, the formation of mycotoxins is possible under certain circumstances during the process of red wine making. At this, metabolites ofPenicillium spp. are of major importance, as this species are to be found frequently on grapes. Beside the nephrotoxic citrinin, which is often co-occurring with ochratoxin A, the occurrence of mycophenolic acid (MPA), a substance of immunosuppressive action, was investigated since it is formed by a great number of Penicillium-species. The detection of these compounds was carried out by means of ELISA and LC-MS. As testing material 44 red wine samples of different provenience and vintages were used. Mycophenolic acid could be detected in 91 % of the samples. The maximum content amounted to 130 ng/ml, yet most of the samples resulted in much lower concentrations of between 3 and 20 ng/ml. The extent of contamination seems to depend rather on the origin of the wine than on the vintage. In particular samples from Southern Europe were most contaminated. This could be due to different practises in wine-making. Citrinin was not detectable in any sample (< 0,2 ng/ml). Regarding the detected concentrations of MPA and citrinin, there is probably no concern for consumers’ health. However, the degree of contamination of wine with MPA may well serve as an indicator for hygiene in production. 相似文献

The lipid fraction of seeds from different pine species and populations was studied regarding total lipid content, fatty acid profile and vitamin E composition. The investigated seeds contained a high percentage of lipid (13.6 to 31.5 %). Lipid fractions were found to be rich in vitamin E, which varied significantly among species and populations. P. halepensis (Ph−Hn) showed the highest content of vitamin E (256.3 mg/kg of seeds) and the uppermost content of α-tocopherol (44 mg/kg). However, P. halepensis (Ph−Kas) was the richest in γ-tocopherol (204.9 mg/kg). Lipid fractions had a low content of δ-tocopherol (1.2 to 3.6 mg/kg. The highest content of γ-tocotrienol (∼18 %) was determined for P. halepensis (Ph−Dc and Ph−Hn). Thirteen fatty acids were identified by GC-FID with significant variation between the investigated species. The linoleic acid was the major fatty acid followed by oleic acid and palmitic acid. The chemical differentiation among species for the composition of fatty acids and vitamin E was confirmed by PCA. Significant correlations were observed between the content of vitamin E and fatty acids and ecological parameters of P. halepensis populations. 相似文献

Mycophenolate mofetil, a new immunosuppressant, is a morpholinoethyl ester of mycophenolic acid. A new selective, sensitive and simple high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of mycophenolic acid and mycophenolate mofetil in biological samples. The preparation of samples was based on liquid—liquid extraction. The compounds were separated on a CN column using acetonitrile—0.01 M phosphate buffer (1:4, v/v) as the mobile phase. UV detection was used at wavelengths 215 and 304 nm. The detection limit was 5 ng per injection volume. This method enabled pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies in humans and rats. 相似文献

We describe a novel sensitive and simplified gradient HPLC assay for quantification of the immunosuppressant mycophenolic acid (MPA) in rat and human plasma. In contrast to previously reported MPA assays, our method used a single step extraction comprising addition of acetonitrile, which contained phenolphthalein glucoronic acid as internal standard, for protein precipitation. Linearity: 0.1–100 μg/ml (r2>0.999), mean recoveries: MPA 98.0%, internal standard 105.2%, mean intra-day precision: 4.3%, mean day-to-day precision: 4.3%, mean day-to-day accuracy: −1.5%. Sensitivity was sufficient to allow for quantification of mycophenolic acid in as little as 50 μl plasma. 相似文献

With the agar diffusion test and BS-C-1 cells, mycophenolic acid was found to give a straight-line dose-response activity in inhibiting the cytopathic effects of vaccinia, herpes simplex, and measles viruses. Plaque tests have shown 100% reduction of virus plaques by mycophenolic acid over drug ranges of 10 to 50 mug/ml and virus input as high as 6,000 plaque-forming units (PFU) per flask. Back titration studies with measles virus inhibited by mycophenolic acid have indicated that extracellular virus titers were reduced by approximately 3 logs(10) and total virus was reduced by 1 log(10). The agar diffusion test system lends itself readily to drug reversal studies. Mycophenolic acid incorporated into agar at 10 mug/ml gave 100% protection to virus-infected cells. Filter paper discs impregnated with selected chemical agents at concentrations of 1,000 mug/ml (20 mug per filter paper disc) were placed on the agar surface. Reversal of the antiviral activity of mycophenolic acid was indicated by virus breakthrough in those cells in close proximity to the filter paper disc. Chemicals showing the best reversal of the antiviral activity of mycophenolic acid were guanine, guanosine, guanylic acid, deoxyguanylic acid, and 2,6-diaminopurine. The reversal of antiviral activity was confirmed by titrations of virus produced with various amounts of both mycophenolic acid and guanine present and by isotope tracer methods with uptakes of labeled uridine, guanine, leucine, and thymidine in treated and nontreated, infected and noninfected cells as parameters. All antiviral effects of mycophenolic acid at 10 mug/ml could be reversed to the range shown by untreated controls by the addition of 10 mug/ml of those chemicals exhibiting reversal activity. 相似文献

The effect of a GnRH analogue (buserelin) combined with the ram effect on the reproductive efficiency of ewes was investigated in 105 cross-bred fat tailed ewes, during the transition period from anoestrus to the natural breeding season. Plasma progesterone concentration was used in the assessment with regard to ovulation and pregnancy. Ewes were maintained on natural pastures composed of medium to low quality forages, and received supplementation (40% alfalfa hay: 60% wheat straw) ad libitum, plus 100–300 g barley grain per head per day. Ewes were isolated from the rams for at least two months and then kept in close proximity of the rams for one week, before the introduction of the rams. The ewes were randomly divided into three equal groups (n = 35 per group). With the introduction of the rams into the flock (day 1) one group was considered as the control and the other two groups were treated with 4.2 μg (low dose) and 8.4 μg (high dose) buserelin on days 5 and 19, respectively. Blood samples were collected on days 5, 12, 26 and 120 after ram introduction for determining the plasma progesterone levels. On day 12 (one week after treatment) the high dose GnRH group recorded significantly lower plasma P4 concentrations (P < 0.05), compared with the control group (1.0 ± 0.1 ng/ml versus 2.4 ± 0.4 ng/ml). On the same day the low GnRH dose group recorded intermediate P4 concentrations, recording no significant differences with the other two groups. The high dose group recorded a significantly (P < 0.05) higher proportion of non-ovulated ewes (61.8%), compared to the control (32.3%) and low dose (31.4%) groups on day 12 of the study. At days 5 and 26 these differences were not significant, but the proportion of non-ovulated ewes was higher in the high dose buserelin treatment group. The percentage of pregnant (plasma P4 > 2.5 ng/ml) and non-pregnant (plasma P4 ≤ 2.5 ng/ml) ewes at day 120 of the study was not statistically different between the treatment groups. The pregnancy rate was highest in the control group (97.1%), when compared to the treated ewes (94.3% and 88.6% in low dose and high dose treatment groups, respectively). Treatment with buserelin combined with the male effect during the breeding season negatively affected the plasma P4 concentration, reducing the reproductive performance of the ewe treatment groups. 相似文献

Out of 36 strains of fungi of the genus Penicillium, some of which were isolated from ancient permafrost, 14 strains synthesized mycophenolic acid (MPA). Maximal (over 500 mg/l) accumulation of MPA in culture liquid was observed in P. brevicompactum strains (VKM F-457, VKM F-477, and VKM F-1150). This was the first study to detect MPA in representatives of the species P. rugulosum; in three strains of this species (VKM FW-665, VKM FW-717, and VKM FW-733), the level of MPA accumulation exceeded 300 mg/l. The time course of the synthesis of MPA by P. rugulosum strain VKM FW-733 was studied. It was shown that the synthesis of this metabolite was dramatically intensified during the stationary growth phase (ten days).Translated from Prikladnaya Biokhimiya i Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 41, No. 1, 2005, pp. 95–98.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Vinokurova, Ivanushkina, Kochkina, Arinbasarov, Ozerskaya. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that estradiol-17β (E2) administered in vivo induces atresia of the dominant ovarian follicle (DF). Whether this effect is exerted directly at the ovarian level or by central mediation has not been confirmed. The present study was designed to assess whether E2 in amounts similar to those found in monkey follicular fluid (FF) directly alters in vitro progesterone (P) accumulation by granulosa cells (GC) aspirated from follicles in cycling rhesus monkeys. Follicular contents were aspirated from three to five animals on each of days 8–13 of the cycle. GC were plated at a density of 50,000 viable GC/0.5 ml medium; GC were incubated with 0 or 2–2,000 ng/ml E2, and cultures were maintained for 72 h. P accumulation by GC collected on day 8 and treated with 2 ng/ml E2 was augmented 37.5 ± 5.5% (X ± S. E. M.; P<.05) over controls but was diminished significantly at 20 ng/ml ( ?55 ± 18% with respect to controls), 200 ng/ml ( ?73.7 ± 13.2%), and 2,000 ng/ml ( ?77.3 ± 18.4%). A similar dose-response relationship was noted on other cycle days. At a concentration of 2,000 ng/ml, E2 significantly reduced P 91.5 ± 8.5% (day 10), 81.5 ± 18.5% (day 11), 84.3 ± 4.7% (day 12), and 53.7 ± 15.8% (day 13). We conclude that E2 at concentrations found in FF can inhibit P output by monkey GC through a direct action. 相似文献

Ochratoxin A contamination of cereal feed grain was monitored during October 1989–September 1990 by analysis of blood samples from slaughter swine in Sweden. The detection of ochratoxin A in swine blood was used as a method to identify swine herds fed ochratoxin A contaminated feed. The contamination level of ochratoxin A in the blood of the positive herds was in the range 2–45 ng/ml with the mean concentration 5.2 ng/ml. Feed samples for mycological analysis were collected from both ochratoxin A positive herds (2 ng/ml blood) and ochratoxin A negative herds (<2 ng/ml blood). From the ochratoxin A positive herds and the ochratoxin A negative herds 22 and 21 feed samples were collected, respectively. No quantitative differences in mould content, as determined by colony forming units, were observed between the two groups. However, there were differences in the mycoflora. The incidence of storage fungi (Penicillium and Aspergillus spp.) was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in feed from ochratoxin A positive herds. Particularly, Penicillium verrucosum was found to be significantly more common (p < 0.001). Altogether 274 isolates were screened for their ability to produce ochratoxin A. Ochratoxin A producers were found only within P. verrucosum; 38% of the 63 isolates produced detectable amounts of ochratoxin A. Ochratoxin A producing isolates of P. verrucosum were found in 60% of the feed samples collected from ochratoxin A positive swine herds and in one sample (5% ) of the feed samples collected from the ochratoxin A negative herds. 相似文献

The control of cell proliferation by thrombin was studied in vitro in cultured epithelial and stromal cells of the endometrium. The effect of thrombin was studied after chronic treatment (72 hr) in medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) combined or not with sex steroids. Thrombin inhibited slightly the proliferation (based on DNA measurements) only in epithelial cells (P < 0.05). 17β-estradiol (E) and progesterone (P4) had no mitogenic effects. The presence of functional thrombin receptors was estimated by stimulation of second messenger generation in response to increasing doses of thrombin (0-1,500 ng/ml). In confluent cultures of epithelial cells, the addition of thrombin for 10 min stimulated cAMP production by 50% with a maximal response at 500 ng/ml (P < 0.05). Similarly, in stromal cells, thrombin stimulated cAMP production in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.01). Generation of inositol-phosphates was also stimulated by 50% in epithelial cells (P < 0.03), with a maximal response at 500 ng/ml, and by 45% in stromal cells (P < 0.01), with a maximal response at 50 ng/ml. The effect of thrombin on cell proliferation was investigated by 3H-thymidine incorporation in serum-free medium for 24 hr. Thrombin inhibited incorporation in epithelial cells (P < 0.0001) in a dose-dependent manner. Conversely, thrombin stimulated significantly incorporation of stromal cells (P < 0.05) at 50 ng/ml. The effect of sex steroids was also evaluated and it was found that E had no effect on cell proliferation, while P4 inhibited the incorporation in both epithelial (P < 0.001) and stromal cells (P < 0.001). The effect of a combined treatment with thrombin and E inhibited both epithelial (P < 0.001) and stromal cell (P < 0.001) growth, but a combination of thrombin and P4 had no additional effect on growth compared to P4 alone. Further investigation of the role of thrombin has been carried out by measuring prostaglandin (PG) responses. Addition of thrombin for 24 hr inhibited PGF2α production by epithelial cells (P < 0.0001) but had no effect on PGE2 production by stromal cells. Therefore, functional receptors for thrombin appear to be present in epithelial and stromal cells of the bovine endometrium. The minimal effect of thrombin alone or in combination with sex steroids on endometrial cell proliferation in vitro combined with the evidence of functional thrombin receptor in these cells, suggest that: (1) the effect of sex steroids in cultured endometrial cells is not modulated by the presence of thrombin, and (2) other factors are necessary for the full expression of mitogenic responses to sex steroids in vitro. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Mycophenolic acid (MPA, 1), an inhibitor of IMP-dehydrogenase (IMPDH) and a latent PPARγ agonist, is used as an effective immunosuppressant for clinical transplantation and recently entered clinical trials in advanced multiple myeloma patients. On the other hand, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), a non-specific histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, has been approved for treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. MPA seemed to bear a cap, a linker, and a weak metal-binding site as a latent inhibitor of HDAC. Therefore, the hydroxamic acid derivatives of mycophenolic acid having an effective metal-binding site, mycophenolic hydroxamic acid (MPHA, 2), 7-O-acetyl mycophenolic acid (7-O-Ac MPHA, 3), and 7-O-lauroyl mycophenolic hydroxamic acid (7-O-L MPHA, 4) were designed and synthesized. All these compounds inhibited histone deacetylase with IC50 values of 1, 0.9 and 0.5 μM, and cell proliferation at concentrations of 2, 1.5 and 1 μM, respectively. 相似文献

This study addresses the relationship between the ochratoxigenic strains of Penicillium verrucosum and ochratoxin A (OTA) contents in organically cultivated grain. It included 37 combined, non-dried grain samples from farmers with no drying facilities as well as 19 non-dried and 22 dried samples from six farms with on-farm drying facilities (Case studies 1–6). The study focused on the ancient wheat type spelt but also included samples of wheat, rye, barley, oats, triticale, emmer, and einkorn. All 78 samples were analysed for moisture content (MC) and occurrence of P. verrucosum. The latter was assessed by plating non-disinfected kernels on DYSG agar and counting those contaminated by the fungus. Fifty-five samples were analysed for OTA. Most of the combine harvested samples (82%) were contaminated with P. verrucosum prior to drying. This was ascribed to difficult harvest conditions and many samples of spelt, which was significantly more contaminated by P. verrucosum than oats, wheat and barley. Though not statistically significant, the results also indicated that spelt was more contaminated than rye, which is usually regarded the most sensitive small grain cereal. No correlation was found between number of kernels contaminated by P. verrucosum and OTA content. Despite many non-dried samples being contaminated by P. verrucosum, only two exceeded the EU maximum limit for grain (5 ng OTA g–1), both being spring spelt with 18 and 92 ng g–1, respectively. The problems were most likely correlated to a late harvest and high MC of the grain. The case studies showed exceedings of the maximum limit in a batch of dried oats and spring wheat, respectively, probably to be explained by insufficient drying of late harvested grain with high MC. Furthermore, our results clearly indicate that OTA is not produced in significant amounts in samples with MCs below 17%. All dried samples with MCs above 18% exceeded the 5 ng OTA g–1 limit in grain. However, no correlation between MC and the amount of OTA produced was found. 相似文献

For the unequivocal proof of the use of a nerve agent O-ethyl S-2-diisopropylaminoethyl methylphosphonothiolate (VX), a rapid, accurate and sensitive method which allows us to identify its main hydrolysis product ethyl methylphosphonic acid (EMPA) in human serum was explored by GC-MS. GC-MS analysis was performed after solvent extraction with acetonitrile in acidic conditions from the serum sample, which was previously deproteinized by micro-ultrafiltration, and subsequent tert.-butyldimethylsilyl derivatization with N-methyl-N-(tert.-butyldimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (MTBSTFA) with 1% tert.-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (t-BDMSC). Linear calibration curves were obtained in the concentration range from 50 to 500 ng/ml for EMPA in the full-scan EI mode and from 5 to 50 ng/ml for EMPA in the SIM EI mode. The relative standard deviation obtained at a sample concentration of 50 ng/ml was 8.4% in the full-scan mode and 7.3% in the SIM mode. Upon applying the full-scan EI and CI mode, 40 ng/ml and 80 ng/ml were the detection limits. Using the SIM-EI mode, in which the ion at m/z 153 was chosen, the limit was 3 ng/ml. 相似文献

The airborne Penicillium spp. and total airborne fungal spore concentration was investigated in the grain shops of Nagpur city, India, using a volumetric Hi‐Air sampler system Mark II (Hi Media Laboratories Ltd., India). The mycotoxins were analysed from the Penicillium isolates obtained from the seeds by thin layer chromatography. The mean concentration of the total fungi isolated from different grain shops ranged from 7.8×102 to 1.1×103 CFU/m3. The mean concentration of Penicillium isolated from the air of grain shops ranged from 8.6×101 CFU/m3 (10.8%) to 1.7×102 CFU/m3 (19.9%). Among the 13 species of Penicillium which were isolated, P. citrinum Thom was the most prevalent species (24.2%), followed by P. oxalicum Currie & Thom (16.5), P. digitatum Saccardo (8.9%), P. janthinellum Biourge (8.7%), P. funiculosum Thom (8.3%), P. chrysogenum Thom (6.4%), P. purpurogenum Stoll (6.2%), P. brevicompactum Dierckx (4.8%), P. frequentans Westling (4.2%), P. italicum Wehmer (3.8%), P. rubrum Stoll (3.4%), P. expansum Link (2.9%) and P. cyclopium Westling (1.6%). Penicillium species were also isolated from seeds such as wheat, maize, soybean, and groundnut. The mycotoxins roquefortin C, citrinin, rubratoxin B, cyclopiazonic acid, verrucosidin, mitorubrinic acid and two unknown metabolites were isolated from Penicillium isolates. 相似文献

A survey was carried out in Reunion island to obtain data on the occurrence of fungi, aflatoxigenic strains of Aspergillus flavus, aflatoxins, total aerobic bacteria and salmonellae of 150 samples of mixed poultry feeds and raw materials. These were collected at five farms over a 3-month period during the warm rainy season.White corn and Brazilian soybean meal seemed to present a better microbiological quality than yellow corn and US soybean meal.Mixed poultry feeds presented a high total mold count reflecting the mold flora of raw materials. The most frequent and abundant fungi were Aspergillus flavus, A. glaucus group, Fusarium spp., Penicillium spp., A. candidus, Mucor spp., A. restrictus, Scopulariopsis spp., Cladosporium spp. and A. versicolor.
Of the 118 A. flavus strains screened, 42 (35.6%) were aflatoxigenic. Yellow corn samples were the most frequently contamined with aflatoxigenic strains (54.5%), followed by mixed feeds (44%).Of the 66 samples tested, 24 (36%) contained aflatoxins (traces to 22 ng/g). A good correlation seemed to exist between presence of at least one aflatoxigenic strain per sample and presence of aflatoxins. 相似文献

A sensitive and highly specific method for the determination of LSD and N-demethyl-LSD in urine, using combined liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with electrospray ionization, has been developed. Extrelut-3 extraction cartridges were used for a basic sample clean-up. Elution was obtained by toluene-diethyl ether (60:40, v/v). A Nucleosil C18 (150×1 mm I.D.) reversed-phase column was used for the chromatographic separation, together with a mixture of 2 mM ammonium formate buffer (pH 3) and acetonitrile (70:30, v/v) as mobile phase. Recoveries were 93 and 80%, detection limits 0.025 and 0.035 ng/ml for LSD and N-demethyl-LSD, respectively. Intra-assay precision, studied at four concentrations, was better than 9% at the ng/ml range and better than 14% at 0.10 ng/ml for both compounds. Limits of quantitation were 0.05 and 0.10 ng/ml for LSD and N-demethyl-LSD, respectively. Reproducibility was good and linearity excellent for LSD in the range from 0.05 to 20 ng/ml (r>0.9999, N=7). 相似文献
