Unlike bacterial toxins that are primarily peptides and are therefore encoded by a single gene, fungal toxins such as the aflatoxins are multi-ring structures and therefore require a sequence of structural genes for their biological synthesis. There is therefore no specific PCR . . . → Read More: PCR detection of aflatoxin producing fungi and its limitations

Development of a multiplex real-time PCR to quantify aflatoxin, ochratoxin A and patulin producing molds in foods

A multiplex real-time PCR (qPCR) method to quantify aflatoxin, ochratoxin A (OTA) and patulin producing molds in foods was developed. For this, the primer pairs F/R-omt, F/R-npstr and F/R-idhtrb and the TaqMan probes, OMTprobe, NPSprobe and IDHprobe targeting the omt-1, otanpsPN and . . . → Read More: Development of a multiplex real-time PCR to quantify aflatoxin, ochratoxin A and patulin producing molds in foods
