Degradation of Aflatoxin by Aspergillus flavus
Aflatoxin degradative activity was demonstrated in 6- to 12-d-old intact mycelium and cell-free extracts of Aspergillus flavus. The addition of cycloheximide, SKF 525-A or metyrapone to cultures of A. flavus prevented subsequent degradation of the aflatoxins, while in cell-free extracts degradation was inhibited by SKF 525-A, metyrapone and cytochrome ...

In Vitro Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Modeling of Voriconazole Activity against Aspergillus Species in a New In Vitro Dynamic Model [PDF]
The pharmacodynamics (PD) of voriconazole activity against Aspergillus spp. were studied using a new in vitro dynamic model simulating voriconazole human pharmacokinetics (PK), and the PK-PD data were bridged with human drug exposure to assess the ...

The production of aflatoxin B1 or G1 by Aspergillus parasiticus at various combinations of temperature and water activity is related to the ratio of aflS to aflR expression [PDF]
The influence of varying combinations of wateractivity (aw) and temperature on growth, aflatoxin biosynthesisand aflR/aflS expression of Aspergillus parasiticuswas analysed in the ranges 17-42°C and 0.90-0.99 aw.Optimum growth was at 35°C.

Nitrification by Aflatoxigenic Strains of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus [PDF]
Summary: Four toxigenic strains each of Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus were grown in Schmid peptone--glucose medium to determine their ability to carry out nitrification and in a yeast extract--sucrose (YES) medium to test their toxigenicity. Two nitrifying strains each of A. flavus and A.
