The oldest known case of mycotoxin poisoning is recorded as a disease called ergotism.

Chronic poisoning, or ergotism, used frequently to occur amongst the poor fed on rye infected with the Claviceps.

Thus far the best-known examples of poisoning by the products of micro-organisms are botulism and ergotism.

Evidently you didn't know, Dr. Blythe, that the first successful isolation of an alkaloid of ergot from the organs in a case of acute ergotism had been made by two Pittsburgh scientists.

When hay affected with ergot is fed to animals it is productive of a characteristic and serious affection or poisoning known as ergotism.
