Description
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a myotoxin produced by Aspergillus and Penicillium fungi. It is frequent contaminant of almost all types of foods but particularly pre-harvest grains as well as meats, peanuts, coffee, and dried grapes. Most people have measurable blood levels of OTA, but when overexposed it is known to be carcinogenic, neurotoxic, immunosuppressant, and immunotoxic. PMID: 16515661 Source: Regenstrief LOINC
