Abstract
Material with the appearance of mold mycelium was formed on salt stock prunes during drying. The moisture-free mycelium-like material consisted of 98.5 to 98.7% sodium chloride (NaCl), 1.67% organic matter and 0.165% acidity expressed as citric acid. X-ray diffraction analysis of the material revealed a diffraction pattern similar to that of NaCl. Formation of the material was dependent upon the efficiency and extent of drying. However, the material was not observed on deskinned salt stock prunes subjected to drying.
