Fumonisins are water-soluble carcinogenic mycotoxins produced by many species of Fusarium molds. Fumonisins occur widely in corn, making them a problem in corn-based feed. Their toxicity has been established in many species. However, their effects on cattle and the potential of carryover to the human diet through beef has not been studied extensively. A 30-day cattle feeding study was conducted by feeding fumonisin-contaminated corn grits dosed at 400 g/g fumonisin B (FB ) and 130 1 1 g/g fumonisin B (FB ) to 3 steers averaging 2 2 480 lb. Premortem anal ysis involved urinalysis; tests for liver functionality; and analysis of the blood, urine, and feces for the presence of fumonisins or their metabolites. Postmortem analysis involved necropsy, analysis of tissue for fumonisins, and histopathology. The test animals showed some s light liver abnormalities. The feces contained unmetabolize d FB and FB 1 2 ($80% of the fed dose), and trac e amounts were detected in the urine. Tiss ue analysis resulted in detection of 2.1 g/g FB in the liver, 0.1 g/g 1 FB in the muscle, and 0.02 g/g FB in the 1 1 kidney, indicating a high feed:tissue ratio, and consequently insignificant carryover into the human diet.
