Comparative study on the effect of temperature and water activity on Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus carbonarius isolates growth and mycotoxin production on a chili powder medium
This study was aimed at determining the effect of temperature and water activity (aw) on the radial growth of Aspergillus flavus and A. carbonarius isolated from dried chili and their production of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA), respectively.
