is a metabolite of Streptococcus viridis var. aureolacri-mosus, the Actinomyces subsp. hygroscopicus strep. Its products by producing bacteria by culture, fermentation, processing.
The mode of action of the microbial source insecticide and acaricide is the same as that of abamectin, but the insecticidal spectrum of Citrinin is narrow. Mainly used for fruit trees (such as citrus, etc.) to control a variety of mites, Cotton leaf mites and orange whole claw mites efficient, but poor activity on eggs. The recommended dosage for the control of mites is 5. 6~28g/hm2. the addition of mineral oil in the preparation can increase the permeability and improve the ovicidal activity of mite eggs.
The acute oral LD50 of male rats was 762mg/kg, and the acute oral LD50 of female rats was 456 mg/kg; the acute oral LD50 for male mice was 324mg/kg, and the acute oral LD50 for female mice was 313mg/kg; The acute percutaneous LD50 for rats was greater than 5000mg/kg. No carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects. Under normal conditions of use, no harm to non-target organisms.

biological activity | Citrinin is a mycotoxin that causes food contamination and has different toxic effects. Citrinin are commonly found with another nephrotoxic mycotoxin, Ochratoxin A. Citrinin have been reported to have a wide range of biological activities in vitro, including antibacterial, antifungal and potential anticancer and neuroprotective effects. |
use | a mycotoxin found in grains and feed that poisons animal kidneys. it is a teratogen for rodents. the toxin can reduce the number of blastocyst cells, embryo survival rate, reduce newborn weight and increase fatal deformities. The toxicity to cells in the culture medium is related to the category of reactive oxygen species. Activate the apoptosis pathway of mitochondria and hinder the anti-apoptotic phosphorylation pathway. |
