General description

Zearalanone (ZEA) or F-2 toxin, a nonsteroidal estrogenic mycotoxin is produced by various Fusarium species. Fusarium graminearum is considered as the primary producer of zearalanone. It is usually seen in moldy hay, high-moisture corn, corn infected before harvest etc.

Application

Zearalanone has been used:
  • as mycotoxin to study its effects on the histology of ovaries in pre-pubertal bitches
  • as a mycotoxin to investigate its influence on selected immunological, haematological and biochemical indexes in bitches
  • as a standard to develop calibration curves in order to study its effects on progesterone and 17β-estradiol concentrations in peripheral blood and body weights of pre-pubertal female Beagle dogs
  • as a standard to develop calibration curves to study its level of intoxication in women with neoplastic lesions in the reproductive tract

Biochem/physiol Actions

Zearalanone is believed to cause vulvovaginitis and estrogenic responses in swine.
