Solid-substrate fermentor for ochratoxin A production.
A laboratory-scale fermentor designed for solid-substrate fermentation was constructed and tested. Its capacity to produce ochratoxin under varied conditions was determined with wheat as substrate. Ochratoxin yields of 2,000 to 2,500 mug/g of wheat were regularly obtained, and occasionally yields as high as 4,000 mug/g were obtained. The most critical factor in the fermentation was initial subs...
متن کاملEffects of Ochratoxin A on Livestock Production
Ochratoxin A (OTA) contamination often causes large economic losses on livestock production. The intake of feed contaminated by OTA also represents a potential risk for animal health and a food safety issue due to the transfer of the toxin through the food chain to humans. The aim of this paper is to review the available literature on: (1) the frequency and degree of occurrence of OTA in differ...
متن کاملControl of Ochratoxin A Production in Grapes
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin commonly present in cereals, grapes, coffee, spices, and cocoa. Even though the main objective of the food and feed chain processors and distributors is to avoid the extended contamination of plant-derived foods and animal feeds with mycotoxins, until now, complete OTA removal from foods and feedstuffs is not feasible. Prevention through pre-harvest management ...
متن کاملDate Wastes as Substrate for the Production of a-Amylase and Invertase
Background: In Algeria the date wastes production is estimated at least 85.000 tones. Date wastes is an economic source of carbohydrates for conversion to industrial enzymes because it is readily available and relatively low priced. Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of using date wastes as a substrate for the production of a-amylase and invertase. Materia...
متن کاملT-2 toxin production by Fusarium tricinctum on solid substrate.
A method has been developed to produce and purify gram quantities of T-2 toxin [4beta, 15-diacetoxy-8alpha-(3-methylbutyryloxy)-12, 13-epoxytrichothec-9-en-3alpha-ol], a mycotoxin elaborated by a strain of Fusarium tricinctum isolated from toxic corn. After growing for 3 weeks at 15 C on 1,200 g of white corn grits, F. tricinctum NRRL 3299 elaborated at least 9.0 g of T-2 toxin, and 2.3 g of cr...
