Abstract in brief

Citrinin (CTN) is a toxin produced by fungi like Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Monascus, mainly contaminating cereals and plant-based foods, often alongside ochratoxin A (OTA).
CTN is toxic to kidneys (nephrotoxic), harmful to developing embryos and fetuses, and has shown evidence of causing genetic mutations (genotoxicity) in some tests, though the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
Despite its potential health risks, CTN contamination in food is relatively rare, but human exposure may be more common than believed due to its production by molds that also produce OTA, and currently, there are no specific regulations for CTN in Europe or Croatia.]
