Photosensitizer ability of 5-methoxysterigmatocystin isolated from aquatic fungus Acremonium persicinum

Photosensitizer ability of 5-methoxysterigmatocystin isolated from aquatic fungus Acremonium persicinum

Background: Photosensitizing ability of compounds is implicated in singlet oxygen (1O2) generation, a ROS nonradical able to oxidize biomolecules affecting the cellular integrity, the increase in ROS levels derived in oxidative stress that is associated to the toxicity mechanisms of mycotoxins.
