Antibody tested in indirect ELISA
The fumonisins are a group of myco- toxins produced primarily by Fusarium verticillioides and Fusarium proliferatum. Maize is the most commonly contaminated crop. Fusarium verticillioides and fumonisins are found worldwide. The primary health concerns associated with fumonisins are acute toxic effects in horses and swine and carcinogenic properties. Fumonisins are carcinogenic to laboratory animals, and, in humans, consumption of fumonisin- contaminated maize is associated with higher rates of esophageal cancer and neural tube birth defects. Fumonisins were first characterized in the late 1980s, as a result of studies into the causes of esophageal cancer in Africa, coupled with outbreaks of equine leuko- encephalomalacia and porcine pulmonary edema in the U.S.
