Abstract Twenty seven isolates of Stachybotrys chartarum, S. albipes, S. kampalensis and S. microspora from Egypt and Eastern Europe were tested for production of macrocyclic trichothecenes. Twenty of the 27 isolates, grown on rice seeds, were toxic to brine shrimp larvae. Based on TLC and HPLC analyses, 5 macrocyclic trichothecenes (verrucarin J, roridin E, satratoxins F, G & H) as well as trichoverrols were identified. When grown in liquid culture on rice extract medium, only 3 isolates were toxic and produced verrucarin J, roridin E and satratoxins G & H. Extracts from mycelial mats were more toxic than culture filterates of two isolates grown on rice extract and both contained the same macrocyclic trichothecenes (285.5 mg/4 L), in addition to trichoverrols A & B (31 mg/4 L) found in mycelial mats only. When grown on 3% sucrose Czapek's medium supplemented with peptone and yeast extract (still cultures), all isolates were non-toxic to brine shrimp and no trichothecenes could be detected in the extracts.
