Fumonisin

Fumonisins (FUM) are mycotoxins produced by certain Fusarium species, such as Fusarium verticillioides. FUM B1 is the most prevalent and significant of these toxins. It inhibits ceramide synthase, disrupting membrane biosynthesis. FUM B1 has been shown to cause liver and kidney damage in all tested animal species.

To ensure consumer safety, it is essential to monitor both food and feed production for fumonisin contamination. Legal limits for fumonisins vary by country. For instance, the maximum allowable level is set at 4000 µg/kg for unprocessed maize, 800 µg/kg for breakfast cereals, and 200 µg/kg for infant formula.
