| Abstract: | ![]()
The distribution patterns of ochratoxin A and its nontoxic dechloro-analogue ochratoxin B were studied in rats using whole-body autoradiography. No prominent difference in distribution patterns was found that could explain why the rat is the animal most susceptible to ochratoxin A-induced renal cancer or why ochratoxin B is less toxic than ochratoxin A. |
