Citreoviridin is a mycotoxin which is produced by Penicillium and Aspergillus species.[2][3][4] If rice, corn, cereals or meat products are contaminated with Penicillin citreoviridin, citreoviridin can be produced if the food is stored in a damp place.[4] Consuming food which is contaminated with citreoviridin can cause the disease cardiac beri beri.[5][6] Furthermore it damages liver and kidneys.[5]
