Abstract

The ability of 44 strains ofA. flavus and 6 strains ofA. parasiticus to produce aflatoxin M on various substrates was examined. It was found that these strains produced aflatoxin M only with larger quantities of aflatoxin B. The presence of several other minor metabolites in culture extracts is described. The highest yield of aflatoxin M was produced by a strain ofA. flavus grown on maize meal.
