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

Food 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.
