| Abstract | Zearalenone (ZON) and Fumonisins are mycotoxins produced by Fusarium molds. Zearalenone (see figure 1) is known to cause estrogenic effects at relatively low levels, including infertility, reduced serum testosterone levels and sperm counts, reduced incidence of pregnancy, and change in progesterone levels. In addition, Zearalenone can delay the breeding process and cost the producer significant economic and physical losses. Fumonsins are known to cause animal diseases and is suspected human carcinogens. Fumonisin B1 (see figure 2) is the most abundant member of the family of Fumonisins while Fumonisin B2 (see figure 3) is more cytotoxic than fumonisin B1. |
