Description:
Application
Fumosin B2 maybe used to study the effect of temperatures from ambient to 150°C and solvent compositions (methanol-water, acetonitrile-methanol-water, ethanol-water, and 100% water) on recovery of fumonisins from corn products.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
General description
Fumonisin B2 belongs to the family of toxins known as fumonisins. It is produced by several species of Fusarium molds primarily by Fusarium verticillioide. It is one of the major mycotoxin contaminant in corn and corn-based foods. Fumonisin B2 is a structural analog of fumonisin B1 but it is more cytotoxic than the latter and it inhibits sphinganine-N-acetyltransferase (ceramide synthase).
