Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Aspergillus was the most frequent fungus isolated from wheat grains, followed by Alternaria, Fusarium and Rhizopus.
- Observation Seven A. flavus isolates showed high fluorescence indicating toxigenicity.
- Observation A. flavus isolates 2, 3, 4 and 6 had high aflatoxin production.
- Intervention effect malic acid completely inhibited A. flavus growth at 1.0%.
- Intervention effect potassium sorbate completely inhibited A. flavus growth at 1.0%.
- Intervention effect carnation oils completely inhibited A. flavus growth at 1.0%.
- Intervention effect Untreated wheat grains had higher aflatoxin concentrations than treated grain.
- Intervention effect Aflatoxin levels declined as treatment concentration increased, reaching minima at 8%.
- Intervention effect Eight percent potassium sorbate gave the lowest aflatoxin production in stored grain.
