TOXIN FROM ASPERGILLUS FLAVUS: PRODUCTION ON FOOD MATERIALS OF A SUBSTANCE CAUSING TREMORS IN MICE.

B J WILSON, C H WILSON.   

Abstract

A strain of Aspergillus flavus produces, on foodstuffs, a substance which causes tremors and convulsions when administered to mice and certain other animals. The tremorgen, which differs from other recognized toxins attributed to this species, is associated with a distinct, dark spot on thin-layer chromatograms viewed under ultraviolet light.
