Food-safety related products include natural toxins which may (but should NOT) occur in food-stuffs, standartized "injection-ready" solutions of toxins in commonly used solvents and the like.

The standard solutions serve as the quantitatively reliable samples of the toxic materials, obtained from tested samples of food by conventional extraction methods.

Highly purified solid toxins serve as starting materials for preparation of antibodies, which may be a part of bioassays etc.

Applications

Natural enniatins occure as a mixture of several related analogs, known as "Enniatins", or "Enniatin complex". 

Enniatins occure in nature in the mycelia of some Fusarium species. Being cyclic and hydrophopic molecules, enniatins are able to act as ionophores. More recently their effects on acyl-CoA cholesterol transferase, transporters and the selectivity of their antitumor action have received more focus. Enniatin has not previously been available for investigation.

RTECS#  DM2570000

EU number
664-283-8
Description

β-Zearalenol is a mycotoxin produced by several species of Fusarium. 
β-Zearalenol exhibits pronounced estrogenic activity, like other zearalenones. 
Contamination of grains by Fusarium species, notably maize, gives rise to high levels of zearalenol and is regarded as an important food quality issue for both human and animal health.

RTECS#  DM2560000

EU number
828-728-1
Description

Alpha-Zearalenol is a synthetic derivative of the macrolactone mycotoxin zearalenone, which is also manufactured by Fermentek by the method of fungal fermentation.. Alpha-Zearalenol is estrogenically active and demonstrates induction of premature uterine growth, increase of nuclear estrogen receptor levels, and a five fold increase of ornithine decarboxylase level (ODC). The increase of ODC level was 20-fold more pronounced with Alpha-Zearalenol than zearalenone, and Alpha-Zearalenol demonstrated three times more potent estrogenic activity than zearalenone.
