What is Sterigmatocystin?

Sterigmatocystin is a precursor in the biosynthetic pathway of aflatoxins, produced by Aspergillus versicolor and related species. It is found in mouldy grains, cheese, and damp indoor environments. Sterigmatocystin is hepatotoxic and classified as a probable human carcinogen.

Why is Sterigmatocystin measured?

Detection of sterigmatocystin indicates Aspergillus-related exposure and is included to broaden the panel's coverage of Aspergillus-derived toxins. Interpretation follows the same exposure-marker logic as the other analytes.
