Increased Aflatoxin G1 Production by Aspergillus Flavus Via Gamma Irradiation

Increased Aflatoxin G1 Production by Aspergillus Flavus Via Gamma Irradiation

Exposure of toxigenic Aspergillus flavus spores to specific gamma radiation levels induced higher yields of aflatoxin G 1 from the developing cultures per unit of time, while nontoxigenic A. flavus cultures remained unaltered with respect to their toxigenic properties.
