Production of [14C]patulin by Penicillium patulum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Factors affecting the production of [14C]patulin from [1-14C]acetate by replacement cultures of Penicillium patulum have been investigated. Incorporation of [1-14C]acetate into patulin reached a maximum with 6- to 8-day-old cultures incubated at 28 degrees C for 8 h in a replacement medium containing 0.1 M glucose, inorganic salts, and undiluted [1-14C]acetate. The specific activity of [14C]patulin obtained from this method was 34 mCi/mmol when 0.5 mCi of [1-14C]acetate was supplied to the replacement medium.

Patulin production in apples decayed by Penicillium expansum.
Sixty isolates of Penicillium expansum were tested for patulin production in decaying apples. All the isolates were found to produce the mycotoxin patulin as determined by thin-layer chromatography. Since patulin is known to be stable in many apple products, the results indicate that apple products made partially from apples decayed by P. expansum will contain patulin which may present a health...
متن کامل6-Methylsalicylic Acid Production in Solid Cultures of Penicillium patulum Occurs Only When an Aerial Mycelium Is Present.
When Penicillium patulum was grown on Czapek-Dox agar, 6-methylsalicylic acid was produced as an aerial mycelium was forming. Nutrients were often plentiful in the medium when biosynthesis began. If the formation of an aerial mycelium was prevented by growing the fungus between two sheets of dialysis membrane, no 6-methylsalicylic acid was produced even when nutrients were completely consumed. ...
متن کاملSome fungicides and growth inhibitor/biocontrol-enhancer 2-deoxy-D-glucose increase patulin from Penicillium expansum strains in vitro
This study assessed the effect of disease control agents, fungicides and 2-deoxy-D-glucose (DOG), on a mycotoxin, patulin, production by strains of Penicillium expansum. Fungicides and DOG were added individually to agar on which the fungus was then grown. In an initial screen of six fungicides, three indicated that patulin was stimulated. These were tested further at a range of concentrations ...
متن کاملThe effect of culture preservation techniques on patulin and citrinin production by Penicillium expansum Link.
AIMS To study the influence of culture preservation methods and culture conditions on the production of the mycotoxins patulin and citrinin by Penicillium expansum. METHODS AND RESULTS Ten strains of Penicillium expansum were preserved using subculture and maintenance at 4 degrees C, mineral oil, drying on silica gel and freeze-drying. Patulin and citrinin production was assessed on yeast ext...
متن کاملProduction of penicillic acid and patulin by an atypical Penicillium roqueforti isolate.
Simultaneous production of penicillic acid and patulin by an atypical strain of Penicillium roqueforti isolated from cheddar cheese is reported. Mycotoxin production was confirmed by thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatography and by ultraviolet, infrared, and mass spectral analyses. Culture extracts were toxic to Bacillus megaterium and chicken embryos. Commercial strains of P. roqueoforti used i...
