CAS 23282-20-4: Nivalenol
Description:Nivalenol is a mycotoxin produced by certain species of fungi, particularly Fusarium, which commonly contaminate cereal grains. It is classified as a trichothecene, a group of toxins known for their ability to inhibit protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. Nivalenol is characterized by its chemical formula C15H20O7 and a molecular weight of approximately 296.33 g/mol. The substance typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow solid and is soluble in organic solvents like methanol and ethanol, but has limited solubility in water. Nivalenol exhibits a range of biological activities, including immunotoxicity and cytotoxicity, which can pose health risks to humans and animals upon ingestion. Its presence in food products is regulated due to its potential to cause adverse health effects, including gastrointestinal disturbances and immune system impairment. Monitoring and controlling nivalenol levels in agricultural products is crucial to ensure food safety and protect public health.
