We have treated a wild type strain of Aspergillus parasiticus with several known aflatoxin inhibitors in hopes of finding specific metabolic blocks in the aflatoxin biosynthetic pathway. In defined medium, benzoic acid (2 and 3 mg/ml), cinnamon (1 mg/ml), and sodium acetate (5 mg/ml) were fungitoxic
The effects of captan on the production of mycelia and cellulolytic enzymes of Aspergillus (iculeuru.s and Botryodiplodiu ilieobromue were investigated in culture. There was decrease in mycelia of both fungi with increase in captan concentration in ppm. No fungal growth was recorded at 400 ppm. Capt
