Citrinin

Description:

Citrinin is a mycotoxin produced by various species of fungi, particularly those in the Penicillium and Monascus genera. It is primarily known for its yellowish color and is classified as a polyketide. Citrinin has a molecular formula of C13H14O5 and a molecular weight of approximately 250 g/mol. This compound is soluble in organic solvents like methanol and ethanol but has limited solubility in water. Citrinin is recognized for its nephrotoxic effects, which can lead to kidney damage in humans and animals upon exposure. It has been implicated in various food safety concerns, particularly in fermented products and grains contaminated with the producing fungi. Due to its toxicological profile, citrinin is subject to regulatory scrutiny, and efforts are made to monitor and limit its presence in food products. Additionally, research continues into its biochemical mechanisms and potential health impacts, emphasizing the importance of understanding mycotoxins in food safety and public health.

(-)-Citrinin

CAS: 518-75-2

(-)-Citrinin is a mycotoxin, which is a secondary metabolite produced by certain species of fungi, including Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Monascus. It is predominantly isolated from the molds found in grains and other agricultural products. The mode of action of (-)-Citrinin involves the disruption of mitochondrial function, leading to impaired energy metabolism and potential cytotoxic effects. This compound inhibits the activity of various mitochondrial enzymes and disrupts the electron transport chain, which can lead to oxidative stress and cellular damage.
