Abstract

Stachybotrys chartarum as an indoor fungus and its macrocyclic trichothecene mycotoxins, satratoxins, are noted as possible etiological agents of illnesses associated with water-damaged buildings especially in USA. The following topics are overviewed briefly in this paper: 1) indoor fungi and infant pulmonary hemorrhage/hemosiderosis, 2) stachybotryotoxicoses in animals and the toxicity of satratoxins, and 3) a human intoxication case by poisonous mushroom, Podostroma cornu-damae, and satratoxins.
