  • Title: Insecticidal and larvicidal activities of the mycotoxins aflatoxin B1 rubratoxin B, patulin and diacetoxyscirpenol towards Drosophila melanogaster.
    Author: Reiss J.
    Journal: Chem Biol Interact; 1975 May; 10(5):339-42. PubMed ID: 806368.
    Abstract:
    In larvicide tests with four mycotoxins, aflatoxin B1 was most toxic to Drosophila melanogaster, followed by rubratoxin B and diacetoxyscirpenol. In concentrations of 20, 10 and 1 mug/cm-2 rubratoxin B and patulin had strong insecticidal activities. Aflatoxin B1 and diacetoxyscirpenol were less active in the contact tests.
