Use of Yeasts for the Biological Control of Toxigenic Aspergillus sp. Associated With Zea mays L.
Zea mays “maize” is one of the most important staple foods for both humans and animals, but it is highly susceptible to pathogens such as toxigenic Aspergillus flavus. Yeasts, however, have the potential to control the growth and activity of toxigenic fungi, representing a viable and economical alternative for biocontrol.

Actinobacteria associated with medicinal plants are recognized as prolific sources of novel bioactive compounds. Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) leaves have been reported to contain a diverse array of secondary metabolites with pharmacological activities, including antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti‐inflammatory effects. In this study, 16 actinobacterial

Summary Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a secondary metabolite primarily produced by moulds of the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium. It is most commonly found in foods of plant origin, such as cereals, wine, coffee, spices and various types of fruits and vegetables, green tea, pistachios, figs, raisins, grapes, wine and chestnuts, as well as beer, coffee ...

Use of Cold Plasma for Phytosanitation and Decontamination of Food Products: A Review
Applications of cold plasma in food industry. ABSTRACT Consumers are increasingly demanding healthy and nutrient‐rich food. Although conventional thermal processing techniques (pasteurization, sterilization, and blanching) ensure food safety and extend shelf life, they often negatively impact nutritional value and sensory quality, and they also consume
