A neuropeptide with diverse biological activities
Fumonisin B3-13C34 (FB3-13C34) is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of fumonisin B3 by GC- or LC-MS. FB3 is a mycotoxin that has been found in Fusarium.1 It is cytotoxic to primary rat hepatocytes when used at concentrations of 125, 250, and 500 µM.2 Dietary administration of FB3 (0.05%) for 14 or 21 days induces hepatocyte nodules, a marker of cancer initiation, in rats.2 FB3 has been detected in corn and corn-based foods and livestock feeds.3
