(-)-Citrinin（Cat No.:R050011）is a naturally occurring mycotoxin produced by certain fungal species, notably Penicillium and Monascus. This polyketide compound is known for its toxic properties and has been studied extensively in mycotoxicology. (-)-Citrinin primarily affects kidney function and has been linked to nephrotoxicity, making it a subject of interest in toxicology research. Additionally, it is often used in laboratory settings to study oxidative stress mechanisms due to its ability to induce cellular damage. Its role in food safety and spoilage control also makes it a critical research focus.
