Ochratoxin A (OTA), one of the most important mycotoxins, is mainly produced by fungi in the
genera Aspergillus and Penicillium, and commonly found in food and agricultural products …

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by various toxigenic fungi belonging to the
genera Aspergillus, Fusarium and Penicillium. They have mutagenic, teratogenic …

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by pathogenic fungi that colonize fruits and
vegetables either during harvesting or during storage. Mycotoxin contamination in fruits and …

A novel ratiometric electrochemical aptasensor was developed for Ochratoxin A (OTA)
detection based on the binding of methylene blue (MB) to DNA with a dual signal …

The saprophytic yeast-like fungus Aureobasidium pullulans has been well documented for
over 60 years in the microbiological literature. It is ubiquitous in distribution, being found in a …

Abstract Ochratoxin A (OTA) and Ochratoxin B (OTB) co-contaminate many types of
agricultural products. Screening enzymes that degrade both OTA and OTB has significance …

Mycotoxins are generally found in food, feed, dairy products, and beverages, subsequently
presenting serious human and animal health problems. Not surprisingly, mycotoxin …

Anarchic growth of ochratoxin A (OTA) producing fungi during crop production, prolonged
storage, and processing results in OTA contamination in foodstuffs. OTA in food exacerbates …
