Product Information

• Name: Ochratoxin alpha
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Ochratoxin A is a mycotoxin that is produced by the Aspergillus ochraceus fungus. It has been shown to inhibit mitochondrial membrane potential and reduce long-term toxicity in rats. Ochratoxin A has also been found to be genotoxic, with a mutagenic effect on the rat liver microsomes. Ochratoxin A can be analysed using LC-MS/MS techniques and has been detected in human urine samples at concentrations of up to 1 µg/L. The carcinogenic potential of ochratoxin A has not yet been determined.
