Toxicokinetics and the toxicological effects of culture material containing fumonisin B1 (FB1) were studied in male weaned piglets by clinical, pathological, biochemical and sphingolipid analyses. The animals received a single oral dose of 5 mg FB1/kg of body weight, obtained from Fusarium verticillioides culture material. FB1 was detected by HPLC in plasma collected at 1-h intervals up to 6 h and at 12-h intervals up to 96 h. FB1 eliminated in feces and urine was quantified over a 96-h period and in liver samples collected 96 h post-intoxication. Blood samples were obtained at the beginning and end of the experiment to determine serum enzyme activity, total bilirubin, cholesterol, sphinganine (Sa), sphingosine (So) and the Sa/So ratio. FB1 was detected in plasma between 30 min and 36 h after administration. The highest concentration of FB1 was observed after 2 h, with a mean concentration of 282 μg/ml. Only 0.93% of the total FB1 was detected in urine between 75 min and 41 h after administration, the highest mean concentration (561 μg/ml) was observed during the interval after 8 at 24 h. Approximately 76.5% of FB1 was detected in feces eliminated between 8 and 84 h after administration, with the highest levels observed between 8 and 24 h. Considering the biochemical parameters, a significant increase only occurred in cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase and aspartate aminotransferase activities. In plasma and urine, the highest Sa and Sa/So ratios were obtained at 12 and 48 h, respectively.
