CAS 1165-39-5: Aflatoxin G1
Description:Aflatoxin G1 is a naturally occurring mycotoxin produced by certain molds, particularly Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. It is classified as a potent carcinogen and is known for its toxic effects on both humans and animals. Aflatoxin G1 is part of a group of aflatoxins that can contaminate agricultural products, especially grains, nuts, and seeds, leading to significant health risks upon ingestion. The compound is characterized by its complex structure, which includes a fused bicyclic ring system and various functional groups that contribute to its biological activity. Aflatoxin G1 is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which affects its behavior in biological systems and environmental contexts. Due to its toxicity, regulatory agencies monitor aflatoxin levels in food products, and measures are taken to minimize contamination. The presence of aflatoxin G1 in food can lead to serious health issues, including liver damage and increased cancer risk, making it a significant concern in food safety and public health.
