Inhibition of growth and ochratoxin A biosynthesis in Aspergillus carbonarius by flavonoid and nonflavonoid compounds
The effect of naturally occurring phenolic compounds on Aspergillus carbonarius growth and ochratoxin A (OTA) production was studied. Caffeic acid and the flavonoids, rutin and quercetin, were added to Czapek Yeast Extract agar at concentrations ranging between 50 and 500 mg/l. All phenolic compound...
