    Mer-NF5003E

    $212.00 - $739.00

    Mer-NF5003E is a sesquiterpenoid mycotoxin isolated from Stachybotrys strains, first published in 1994 as an avian
    myeloblastosis virus (AMV) protease inhibitor. Mer-NF5003E is inactive against HIV due to host cell toxicity. An analogue, MerNF5003B has been isolated from fungal biomass and dust samples collected in a domestic facility and may be a useful
    biomarker to assess exposure to potentially harmful S. chartarum contamination.
