Micromycetes, molds, filamentous fungi
• Filamentous fungi - molds
• In mycology – molds – only the fungi of subphyllum Oomycota (ie. Phytophtora infestans – potato mold), Chytridiomycota (ie. Synchytrium endobioticum) and Zygomycota (ie. Mucor mucedo )
• In some popular medical booklets is term mold used even for indication of yeasts.

Characteristics of forms
• Majority of filamentous fungi grow as fibres (hypha), that are cylindrical thread-like structures 2–10 µm in diameter, long up to several cm.
• Hyphae grow at their ends (apices); new hyphae are formed by origination of new ends on existing hypha, process is designated branching.
• Sometimes growing end of hypha splits in two, and then grow two parallel hyphae.

Characteristics of Ascomycota • Most species grow as filamentous, microscopic structures – hyphae.
• Many interconnected hyphae form a mycelium, which—when visible to the naked eye (macroscopic)—is commonly called mold (or, in botanical terminology, thallus).
• During sexual reproduction, many Ascomycota typically produce large numbers of asci. The asci is often contained in a multicellular, occasionally readily visible fruiting structure, the ascocarp (also called an ascoma).
• Ascocarps come in a very large variety of shapes - solitary or clustered.
• Some ascomyceous fungi, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, grow as single-celled yeasts, which—during sexual reproduction—develop into an ascus, and do not form fruiting bodies.

Mycotoxines • Mycotoxines are toxic secondary metabolites of many
species of micromycetes (molds), that can contaminate wide spectrum of food and feed. These dangerous natural contaminants cause various toxic syndroms, called mycotoxikoses.
• Impact of mycotoxines depends on the type of toxine, duration of its effect, dose and and the age of man, his nutrition and actual heath status.
• Target organs of mycotoxine effects are cells of liver, kidney, lungs, nerves, endocrine glands and cells of immune system. They can cause acute toxic reaction, some have mutagenic, teratogenic, carcinogenic and estrogenic efect.

Monitoring of mycotoxines
• Many international authorities are trying to accomplish the global standardization of regulatory limits for mycotoxines. Today, more then 100 countries set up regulatory limits for mycotoxines in feed industry.
• In total 13 mycotoxines (or groups of mycotoxines) has been followed. Evaluation process of mycotoxine regulation includes a large battery of laboratory tests using extractions, purifications and techniques of separation.
• Majority of official control methods is based on High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).
• Many standards for mycotoxines analytics has been guaranteed by European Committee for Standardization (CEN).

Ochratoxin
• Ochratoxin is mycotoxin formed by three types of secondary metabolites: A, B, a C.
• All are produced by specia of genus Penicillium and Aspergillus. All three types are formed so, that Ochratoxin B (OTB) is nonchlorinated form of Ochratoxine A (OTA) and Ochratoxin C (OTC) is ethyl esther form of Ochatoxin A.
• Aspergillus ochraceus is contaminant of many comodits including beverages like beer and wine.
• Aspergillus carbonarius is the main species found on grapes, where toxin is released during pressing.
• OTA was qualified as carcinogen and nefrotoxin,probably is tumors promoting factor in human urinary tract.

Citrinin • Citrinin – toxin originally isolated from Penicillium citrinum,
was identified in many other species of Penicillium and in some Aspergillus spp.
• Some are used in food technology – cheeses (Penicillium camemberti), sake, miso, soya sauces (Aspergillus oryzae).
• Citrinin is responsible for disese of „yellow“ rice in Japan. It was prooved as nephrotoxin of all so far tested animals.
• It occurs in many types of food (wheat, rice, maize, barley, oats, rye, and in food coloured by Monascus pigment) its full meaning for human health is not known.
• Citrinin can synergisticaly cause together with Ochratoxinem A the suppresion of RNA synthesis in mice kidneys.

Patulin • Patulin is toxin formed by P. expansum, Aspergillus,
Penicillium, and Paecilomyces. • P. expansum is typical in rotten fruits and vegetable, namely
rotten apples and figgs. • Its decomposition takes place during fermentation processes
and is not find in beverages like cider. • Carcinogenity of patulin was not verified, but exist data about
demage of immunity system in animals. • In 2004, E U set up limits for patulin concentration in food. • Maximal amount is 50 μg/kg for all types of fruit juices
(concentrates), 25 μg/kg is limit for solid products from apples (ready to
eat), 10 μg/kg for apple products for children nutrition, including
apple juice.

Mycotoxines of Fusarium
• Fusaria belong to distinctive agents of human mycosis. Produce mycotoxins threatening human health. Namely trichotecens, zearalenon and fumonizin are common and dangerous.
• Zearalenon (C18H22O5) white, or pale yellow crystalic matter, without odour.
• Temperature of thaw betwee 161 to 164 °C. Unsoluble in water, tetrachloromethan (CCl4) and alkoholes. Zearalenon is relatively lipophilic compound. Its content may be reduced in cereal technology processing.

Zearalenon
• Isolated in 1966
• White or pale yellow crystalic matter
• Temperature of thawing 161 – 164 °C
• Found in flour and cereal products
• estrogennic efect

• Symptoms of intoxication: inflammations of digestive
tract, nausea, diarrhoea, inhibit proteosynthesis,

Ergot alkaloids • Ergot alkaloids are produced as a mixture of toxic alkaloids in
sclerocia of some Claviceps species, that are common grass pathogens.
After digestion of ergot sclerocia from infected cereals, usually in bread made from contaminated flour, there is an onset of ergotisms – human disease, historicaly known as Fire of Saint Antonio.
Two forms of ergotism: gangrenose affecting blood supply of limbs and convulsive, affecting central nervous system.
Recent methods of corn cleaning reduced significantly the ergotisms as human disease. But it is still a veterinary problem.
Ergot alkaloids has a wide pharmaceutical applications.

Approaches to the risk analysis of mycotoxins in the food supply
• While the complete elimination of mycotoxins from foods would be an impossible goal, it is important to ensure that their levels do not threaten health. In recent years, a variety of interrelated approaches have been developed to assess the hazards, monitor exposure and determine the associated risks. These processes need to be transparent so that the hazards and the need for risk management and intervention are clear. Risk assessments provide the scientific background and understanding for sound policy decisions that protect the public at an affordable cost and allow for public/international discussion, scrutiny and harmonization. Because there are differences in the significance of biological effects and in the available data, there is at present no single approach that can be used for all problems regarding mycotoxins, and a case-by-case approach is needed.
