Ochratoxin production by the Aspergillus ochraceus group and Aspergillus alliaceus.
Ochratoxin A is a toxic and carcinogenic fungal secondary metabolite; its presence in foods is increasingly regulated. Various fungi are known to produce ochratoxins, but it is not known which species produce ochratoxins consistently and which species cause ochratoxin contamination of various crops. We isolated fungi in the Aspergillus ochraceus group (section Circumdati) and Aspergillus alliac...
متن کاملInhibitory Effect of Essential Oils on Aspergillus ochraceus Growth and Ochratoxin A Production
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin which is a common contaminant in grains during storage. Aspergillus ochraceus is the most common producer of OTA. Essential oils play a crucial role as a biocontrol in the reduction of fungal contamination. Essential oils namely natural cinnamaldehyde, cinnamon oil, synthetic cinnamaldehyde, Litsea citrate oil, citral, eugenol, peppermint, eucalyptus, anise and...
متن کاملProduction of penicillic acid and ochratoxin A on poultry feed by Aspergillus ochraceus: temperature and moisture requirements.
A strain of Aspergillus ochraceus Wilhelm, isolated from poultry feed, produced both penicillic acid and ochratoxin A. Studies demonstrating the ability of this fungus to colonize poultry feed and produce these two mycotoxins under various temperatures and moistures indicated that the interaction was complex. The optimal temperature for conidial development did not vary with moisture, but accum...
متن کاملOchratoxin a „in Vitro" Biosynthesis by the Aspergillus Ochraceus E'g Isolate
This paper deals with the biosynthetic capacity for ochratoxin A (OTA) production by Aspergillus ochraceus E'G isolate derived from A. ochraceus CBS 108.08 strain, during 2007. Preliminary analysis of fungal potential for the production of OTA were performed according to the modified method of F i l t e n b o r g et al. (1983). Toxin production was tested in the following liquid media: (i) gluc...
متن کاملProduction of ochratoxin A by Aspergillus ochraceus in a semisynthetic medium.
Aspergillus ochraceus NRRL 3174 produced 29 mg of ochratoxin A per 100 ml of nutrient medium consisting of 4% sucrose and 2% yeast extract. Ochratoxin A was the sole metabolite present in the chloroform extracts of the growth medium. Trace amounts of ochratoxin B were produced in a 1% yeast medium, and a comparatively large amount of ochratoxin B was produced in media containing 16 and 32% sucr...
