Overview | β-zearalenol is Zearalenone (ZEA) one of the main derivatives formed by metabolism in animals. Β-zearalenol is also one of the main residues of ZEA in animals, which directly affects the quality and safety of animal derived food. |
Use | β-zearalenol is Zearalenone (ZEA) one of the main derivatives formed by metabolism in animals. It has estrogen-like activity, strong reproductive toxicity to animals, in addition to cytotoxicity, immune toxicity and genetic toxicity. |
biological activity | β-zearalenol is a non-steroidal estrogenic mycotoxin produced by Fusarium. Β-zearalenol can potentially influence gene expression by affecting the level of transcription and translation. |
