Ochratoxin A (303-47-9) is a mycotoxin that causes widespread contamination in foodstuffs and environments thus causing health risks to humans and animals.1 It has been shown to be carcinogenic2, mutagenic3, neurotoxic4, nephrotoxic5 and immunotoxic1. It increases lipid peroxide levels in cells6 and reduces antioxidant defenses2 leading to oxidative DNA damage3.
