Cyclodextrins Can Entrap Zearalenone-14-Glucoside: Interaction of the Masked Mycotoxin with Cyclodextrins and Cyclodextrin Bead Polymer
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a Fusarium-derived xenoestrogenic mycotoxin.In plants, zearalenone-14-O-β-d-glucoside (Z14G) is the major conjugated metabolite of ZEN, and is a masked mycotoxin.Masked mycotoxins are plant-modified derivatives, which are not routinely screened in food and feed samples.Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic oligosaccharides built
