Quantitative Analysis of Total Aflatoxins in Dairy Cattle Feed Using a Competitive Lateral Flow Immunoassay: A Regional Study in Tigray, Ethiopia. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
Quantitative analysis of total aflatoxins in dairy cattle feed across five urban centres in Tigray, Ethiopia, revealed that 22.4% of samples exceeded national limits and 29.1% surpassed EU thresholds. Higher contamination levels were associated with roughage‐based feed, poor storage conditions and the presence of toxigenic Aspergillus flavus and A ...

Inhibitory Effects of Silver Nanoparticles on Growth and Aflatoxin B1 Production by Aspergillus Parasiticus [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2015
Background: Aflatoxins (AFs) are secondary hazardous fungal metabolites that are produced by strains of some Aspergillus species on food and feedstuffs. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is one of the most important AF with high toxicity.

<i>Aspergillus</i> in Italian Pistachios: Characterization and Detection of Major Aflatoxigenic Species With a Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay. [PDF]

open access: yesFood Sci Nutr
Identification A. flavus and A. parasiticus was done as major aflatoxigenic contaminants in Italian pistachios, both capable of producing high levels of Aflatoxin B1. Development of a LAMP assay targeting the nor1 gene was done, showing high sensitivity (0.03 pg of DNA) and specificity, even detecting contamination as low as 0.5 spores/g.

An Antibiotic from Aspergillus parasiticus [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1944
RECENTLY we had occasion to examine the possible production of antibacterial materials by about twenty strains of Aspergillus flavus, A. oryzœ, A. tamarii and A. parasiticus. The culture fluids showed no significant antibacterial titres when a medium of the Czapek type was used; the test organism was Staphylococcus aureus and both the serial dilution ...

Induction of Yeastlike Development in Aspergillus parasiticus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1971
SUMMARY: Vegetative development of Aspergillus parasiticus may follow either one of two patterns of morphogenesis (hyphal-yeastlike dimorphism) depending upon the presence or absence of manganese ions in the culture medium. The addition of exogenous amino acids, vitamins and other trace metals had no significant effect upon morphogenetic development or

Nitrification by Aflatoxigenic Strains of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1974
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.

High Efficacy of the Volatile Organic Compounds of Streptomyces yanglinensis 3-10 in Suppression of Aspergillus Contamination on Peanut Kernels

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus are saprophytic fungi which can infect and contaminate preharvest and postharvest food/feed with production of aflatoxins (B1, B2, and G).

Fenitothion Degradation by Aspergillus parasiticus

open access: yes, 2022
India is a predominantly agriculture-based country with a population of 1.27 billion, according to FAO the population has reached to 1.66 billion in between 2007 and 2050. Tense because of overgrowing population the yield of crops were increased by applying various insecticides for controlling (insects, pests).

Differentiation between Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus from Pure Culture and Aflatoxin-Contaminated Grapes Using PCR-RFLP Analysis of aflR-aflJ Intergenic Spacer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Aflatoxins (AFs) represent the most important single mycotoxin-related food safety problem in developed and developing countries as they have adverse effects on human and animal health. They are produced mainly by Aspergillus flavus and A.
