Deciphering the Anti-Aflatoxinogenic Properties of Eugenol Using a Large-Scale q-PCR Approach [PDF]
Produced by several species of Aspergillus, Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a carcinogenic mycotoxin contaminating many crops worldwide. The utilization of fungicides is currently one of the most common methods; nevertheless, their use is not environmentally or ...

Induction of Yeastlike Development in Aspergillus parasiticus [PDF]
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]
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.

Fenitothion Degradation by Aspergillus parasiticus
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]
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.

Complex regulation of the aflatoxin biosynthesis gene cluster of Aspergillus flavus in relation to various combinations of water activity and temperature [PDF]
A microarray analysis was performed to study the effect of varying combinations of water activity and temperature on the activation of aflatoxin biosynthesis genes in Aspergillus flavus grown on YES medium. Generally A.
