Application Notes

Austdiol is an azaphilone pigment produced by Aspergillus ustus found in cereals feed grain first reported Steyn and co-workers at CSIR, South Africa in 1974. Austdiol is a trans-vicinal diol in which the two fused rings lie in approximately the same plane. Austdiol induces cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase, inducing DNA breaks and increasing the frequency of micronuclei and nucleoplasmic bridges in binucleated cells in a CHO-K1 cell line. Austdiol is mutagenic and carcinogenic.
