    ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY TOOLS & SERVICES
    Product Description

    15-Acetyldeoxy nivalenol is a trichothecene mycotoxin produced by certain species of the fungus Fusarium, particularly those found on cereal crops.1 It is an acetylated derivative of 4-deoxy nivalenol (DON; Item No. 11428) that can be converted to DON in the body. 15-Acetyldeoxy nivalenol induces vomiting and anorexia in livestock and experimental animals and its toxicity compared with DON is dependent upon the route of administration.2,3 It also changes brain bioamine neurotransmitter levels in pigs and chickens.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
