Mahua flower yeast extract medium : A more efficient aflatoxin producing medium
1995
Mahua flower extract was evaluated for the growth of toxigenic strains of Aspergillus flavus and aflatoxin elaboration. Different concentrations of dried mahua flower, yeast extract, and different pH were tried to find out the best combination, which promoted optimum fungal growth and maximum aflatoxin production. 20% dried mahua flower, 2% yeast extract and 6.5 pH of the medium was found to be most conducive and produced maximum amount of aflatoxin, even more than that produced in commonly used SMKY medium.
