General description
Citrinin is a mycotoxin from Penicillium citrinin that comprises a quinone methide component.
Application
Citrinin has been used as:
- a standard for calibration curve preparation for citrinin quantification Monascus purpureus ATCC 36928
- an internal standard in thin layer chromatography (TLC) for characterizing the citrinin from Aspergillus and Penicillium strains
- standard to characterize citrinin for rotten apples TLC
Biochem/physiol Actions
Citrinin is a predominant contaminant in agriculture supplies and food. It exhibits genotoxic, embryotoxic, and teratogenic properties. It is hepatonephrotoxin and a potent mycotoxin in rice grains.
