چکیده

background: aflatoxins (afs) are the most prevalent carcinogenic mycotoxins, produced mainly by aspergillus flavus and a. parasiticus. the general purpose of the present study was to use dehydroacetic acid (dha) and ozonated water (ow) to control a. flavus growth and accumulation of aflatoxin b1 (afb1) in iranian pistachios. methods: three treatment pistachio groups were separately immersed in dha (1 n) and ow (10 mg/l), and also combination of dha and ow. then, each group was contaminated with 1×103 a. flavus cell suspensions. also, sterile distilled water as well as cyclohexamide solutions were considered as negative and positive control, respectively. the solution inhibitory characteristics were assessed by enumeration of viable as well as cultivable fungal conidia on the samples. high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) technique was used for afb1 determination. data were analyzed by one way anova and tukey t-tests using spss, inc, chicago, il software (v. 16.0). results: dha and combinations of dha and ow groups which exhibited no growth of a. flavus, had the most antifungal activity (p<0.05) in comparison with the other groups. the highest afb1 contamination content was seen in negative control samples (6.19±0.33 µg/kg) and also ow treated ones (6.1±0.32 µg/kg). the least afb1 level was detected in dha treated group (1.5±0.21 µg/kg) and combinations of dha and ow (1.59±0.21 µg/kg). however, no afb1 was found in positive control samples. conclusion: we found that dha showed antifungal and inhibitory activities more than ow in iranian pistachios. application of dha is recommend for iranian food industries as a potential mean for prevention of the fungi growth and afb1 accumulation in pistachios nuts.

Impacts of Dehydroacetic Acid and Ozonated Water on Aspergillus flavus Colonization and Aflatoxin B1 Accumulation in Iranian Pistachio

Background: Aflatoxins (AFs) are the most prevalent carcinogenic mycotoxins, produced mainly by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus. The general purpose of the present study was to use Dehydroacetic Acid (DHA) and Ozonated Water (OW) to control A. flavus growth and accumulation of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in Iranian pistachios. Methods: Three treatment pistachio groups were separately immersed ...

Biocontrol of Aspergillus Flavus and Aflatoxin B1 Production in Corn

The potent mycotoxin aflatoxin B1 is a secondary metabolite of Aspergillus fungi that grow, on a variety of food and feed commodities at any stage during growth, harvest, storage and transportation. The occurrence of aflatoxin contamination is global, with severe problems especially prevalent in developing countries. In present study, corn samples were contaminated with aflatoxin B1 in the conc...

Effect of Irrigation Systems on the Contamination of Aspergillus flavus and Aflatoxin Production in Shahpasand Pistachio Cultivar

Aflatoxins are secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus, A. tamari, A. bombycis and A. nomius species. Relative humidity (RH) is one of the most important parameters influencing the development of aflatoxins in pistachio orchards by Aspergillus species. The type of irrigation system affects density and frequency of the Aspergillus species in the soil. In the current ...

Evaluation of Contamination of Aspergillus flavus and Aflatoxin Production in Pistachio Cultivars and Investigation of a Chemical Controlling Method

In order to study the contamination of Aspergillus flavus and aflatoxin production in pistachio cultivars in the Semnan province, eight cultivars of pistachio were collected from major pistachio growing areas. Using the serial dilution method, ground pistachio kernels were inoculated on plates containing AFPA medium and incubated at 28° C. This experiment was performed using three replications ...
