Moldy walnut toxicosis in a dog, caused by the mycotoxin, penitrem A
Abstract
Penitrem A was found in moldy walnuts that were involved in an intoxication of a dog in California. Penicillium crustosum was isolated from the walnuts and penitrem A was isolated from extracts of the mycelium of this fungus when it was grown on a synthetic medium.
