studies of the toxicity of helminthosporium maydis.isolates of helminthosporium maydis from blighted corn were tested for toxicity in mice, rats, swine, rabbits, microorganisms, and tissue culture. extracts of grains, mycelia, and culture supernatant fluids killed mice on intraperitoneal (ip) injection, but were nontoxic on administration by mouth to swine. the toxin was partially purified and appears to be a glycophospholipid. histopathological examination revealed that the toxin acted as a severe irritant on ip injection, causing death in labo ...19725063202

microbial transformation of flavonoids.the ability of a number of fungal spores, and in particular of resting vegetative mycelia, to transform naringin and naringenin was studied. in general, only hydrolytic cleavage of the sugar moieties of naringin to produce prunin and naringenin was observed. two cultures, penicillium charlesii and helminthosporium sativum, also produced two unidentified flavonoid compounds but in very low yields. no transformation of aglycone was detected, although the compound was metabolized by some cultures w ...19715137588

lack of toxicity of helminthosporium maydis-invaded corn and culture filtrates to chicks and mice.six isolates of helminthosporium maydis, obtained from southern leaf blight-damaged corn, were grown separately on autoclaved corn and fed to chicks and mice to evaluate their toxigenicity. two-, three-, and four-week-old culture filtrates from three pathogenic isolates grown separately on modified fries medium were also evaluated for toxigenicity. none of the invaded corn samples or culture filtrates affected the weights of chicks or mice when compared to controls. postmortem examinations did n ...19715167102
