Issue Date: | 1-Nov-2008 | Journal: | International Journal of Molecular Sciences | Abstract: | Samples of blood, kidney and liver were randomly selected from slaughtered pigs (n=90) and analyzed for ochratoxin A by HPLC. In addition, in order to obtain information on the occurrence of nephropathy, histological examinations were carried out. Of the 90 liver samples, 26.6% contained OTA in the range of 0.22-14.5 ng/g. The incidence of OTA in serum and kidney were very similar (31%, 33.3%), with a maximum concentration of 220.8 ng/mL, and 52.5 ng/g, respectively. Histopathological examination of kidneys confirmed tubulopathies with edema and cell vacuolization. In addition, hemorrhages and necrosis of proximal kidney tubules' cells were found. © 2008 by the authors; licensee Molecular Diversity Preservation International. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/11090 | DOI: | 10.3390/ijms9112169 |
