Volatile Compounds In The Management Of Aspergillus Flavus Infestation And Aflatoxin Contamination
Efficacy of volatile compounds in the management of aflatoxin contamination and infestation caused by lessThan i greaterThan A. flavus lessThan /i greaterThan was assessed lessThan i greaterThan in vitro lessThan /i greaterThan . Among different volatile compounds studied formaldehyde, acetic acid propionic acid and salicilaldehyde inhibited the growth and aflatoxin production by lessThan i greaterThan A. flavus lessThan /i greaterThan . Formic acid and benzaldehyde inhibited toxin production to maximum extent. From the above results it is concluded that volatile compounds can be employed in the management of aflatoxin production.
