Five new species of Inosperma from China: Morphological characteristics, phylogenetic analyses, and toxin detection

Researchers in China identified five new species of poisonous mushrooms called Inosperma and tested them for dangerous toxins. They used advanced laboratory methods to detect four types of neurotoxins that can cause serious health problems when people eat these mushrooms. Each species contained different combinations of toxins, with some containing none and others containing one or more toxic compounds that affect the nervous system.

The Role of AFB1, OTA, TCNs, and Patulin in Forensic Sciences: Applications in Autopsy, Criminal Investigations, and Public Health Prevention

This research examines how dangerous fungal poisons (mycotoxins) found in contaminated food can be detected in deceased individuals during autopsies. These toxins, produced by common molds, can cause serious health problems including liver cancer, kidney disease, and immune system damage. The study proposes procedures for forensic investigators to collect and analyze these toxins from body tissues and fluids to help solve cases involving poisoning or chronic toxin exposure.
