Abstract

Leucinostatins have been recently characterized as mycotoxins by Japanese researchers; we believe that this term has been used improperly. In fact feeding albino mice with food-stuff infected by Paecolomyces marquandii it is possible to prove that Leucinostatins are not real mycotoxins therefore the term used by Japanese group must be understood only to specify products elaborated by fungi.
