Key benefits of Enniatin B (ENB) testing
- Enniatin B emerging mycotoxin exposure tracking
- grain and fruit contamination assessment
What is Enniatin B (ENB)?
Enniatin B is an emerging mycotoxin produced by Fusarium species on grains, as well as on some fruits and vegetables. It has received increasing regulatory attention in recent years. Detected in urine via LC-MS/MS.
Why is Enniatin B (ENB) important?
Enniatin B is one of the most commonly detected Fusarium mycotoxins in European grain monitoring programs. Its toxicological profile in humans is still being characterized, though animal studies indicate potential cytotoxic effects. Its detection in urine reflects recent dietary exposure.
What insights will I get?
Your ENB level may reflect dietary exposure from Fusarium-contaminated grains or fresh produce. Elevated levels may prompt review of grain sourcing quality. This is an emerging marker whose research base is rapidly growing.

Method: LC-MS/MS (Liquid Chromatography/Tandem Mass Spectrometry) measuring free (unconjugated) mycotoxins in urine (CLIA 17D0919496); not cleared or approved by the FDA. Results in ng/g creatinine. Not a stand-alone diagnosis; should be interpreted in clinical context.
