Storage is an important process involved in the postharvest treatment of grain–oilseed and
is necessary for maintaining high quality and ensuring the long‐term supply of these …

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by some filamentous fungi, which can
cause toxic effects in humans and animals. The purpose of the study was to report the …

Abstract Twenty-eight 5-pyrrolidine-2-ones decorated by hydrazine or acyl hydrazones
groups have been designed, synthesized and evaluated as antifungal agents on a panel of …

Zea mays (Maize) is prone to mildew due to its rich nutrition and large embryo, resulting in
the decline of edible quality, germination rate and even threatening people's health. In this …

Aspergillus westerdijkiae can grow as 'golden mould'on the surface of dry-cured meat
products, causing deterioration, and can produce the mycotoxin known as ochratoxin A that …

Contamination of foods by mycotoxins is a reality. However, emerging technologies such as
ozonization can be used to reduce the levels of these contaminants. Thus, the aim of this …

Postharvest preservation and storage have a crucial impact on the technological quality and
safety of grain. The important threat to stored grain quality and nutritional safety of cereal …

Predictive models describing the kinetics of fungal growth and thus the risk of mycotoxin
formation in mass of grain are promising prognostic tools that may be used in postharvest …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a nephrotoxin that contaminates grains in storage. Moisture and
temperature sensors give delayed responses due to their slow kinetic movement within the …

Citrinin (CIT) is a mycotoxin that has been detected in agricultural products, feedstuff, and
Monascus products. At present, research has been performed to develop methods for CIT …
