| | versicolorin A Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Versicolorin A, a precursor of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), can serve as an early indicator of aflatoxin (AF) contamination, even when AFs themselves are present at undetectable levels[1]. | | Definition | ChEBI: An organic heteropentacyclic compound that is 3a,12a-dihydroanthra[2,3-b]furo[3,2-d]furan-5,10-dione carrying three hydroxy substituents at positions 4, 6 and 8. | | References | [1] Gauthier T, Duarte-Hospital C, Vignard J, et al. Versicolorin A, a precursor in aflatoxins biosynthesis, is a food contaminant toxic for human intestinal cells. Environ Int. 2020;137:105568. DOI:10.1016/j.envint.2020.105568 |
