Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Wentzel C. A. Gelderblom mainly investigates Fumonisin B1, Fumonisin, Fusarium, Mycotoxin and Biochemistry. His Fumonisin B1 research includes themes of Molecular biology, Escherichia coli, Toxicity and Physiology. His study connects Ceramide synthase and Fumonisin.

Wentzel C. A. Gelderblom has included themes like Gene mutation, Micronucleus and Microbiology in his Fusarium study. His Mycotoxin research incorporates themes from Phytotoxin, Bioassay, Fungi imperfecti and Fungus. His research in Biochemistry tackles topics such as Aspalathus which are related to areas like Polyphenol and Nothofagin.

His most cited work include:

  • Fumonisins--novel mycotoxins with cancer-promoting activity produced by Fusarium moniliforme. (1050 citations)
  • IARC Monographs on the evaluation of carcinogenic risks to humans: Some traditional herbal medicines, some mycotoxins, naphthalene and styrene (743 citations)
  • Leukoencephalomalacia in a horse induced by fumonisin B1 isolated from Fusarium moniliforme. (626 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Wentzel C. A. Gelderblom mostly deals with Fumonisin, Mycotoxin, Biochemistry, Fumonisin B1 and Fusarium. His work in the fields of Fumonisin, such as Fumonisin B2, intersects with other areas such as Sphingosine. His Mycotoxin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Tolerable daily intake and Aflatoxin.

Wentzel C. A. Gelderblom studied Biochemistry and Aspalathus that intersect with Camellia sinensis, Flavonoid and Viability assay. His Fumonisin B1 research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endocrinology, Hepatocyte, Internal medicine, Toxicity and Pharmacology. His Fusarium study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mutagen, Fungi imperfecti, Microbiology and Bioassay.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fumonisin (42.63%)
  • Mycotoxin (43.16%)
  • Biochemistry (36.84%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Mycotoxin (43.16%)
  • Fumonisin (42.63%)
  • Food science (23.68%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Mycotoxin, Fumonisin, Food science, Polyphenol and Biochemistry are his primary areas of study. His Mycotoxin research includes elements of Hazard and Critical control point. His work in Fumonisin tackles topics such as Microbiology which are related to areas like Fusarium, Lipid metabolism and Lipid raft.

The various areas that he examines in his Polyphenol study include Sutherlandia frutescens, Aspalathus and Traditional medicine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fumonisin B1 and Toxicity. His study looks at the relationship between Fumonisin B1 and fields such as Carcinogenesis, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Phenolic Compounds: A Review of Their Possible Role as In Vivo Antioxidants of Wine* (71 citations)
  • Technological and community-based methods to reduce mycotoxin exposure (29 citations)
  • Technological and community-based methods to reduce mycotoxin exposure (29 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Mycotoxin, Tolerable daily intake, Fumonisin, Critical control point and Biotechnology. His Mycotoxin research is within the category of Food science. His study in Tolerable daily intake is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Toxicology and Crop.

In his research, he undertakes multidisciplinary study on Fumonisin and Biomin. His research on Critical control point often connects related topics like Hazard.
