Various strains of species belonging to the Aspergillus ochraceus group (A. ochraceus, A. sclerotiorum, A. alliaceus, A. ostianus, A. melleus, and A. sulphureus) can produce two mycotoxins, ochratoxin A and penicillic acid, on liquid media and in cereal grains. The quantity of each toxin produced is influenced by temperature; low temperature (10 and 20C) favor penicillic acid synthesis and higher (28C), ochratoxin A production. Generally penicillic acid is produced in yields about one to three magnitudes greater than ochratoxin A. A simple fluorodensitometric method for concomitant quantitative analysis of the two toxins has been developed based on conversion of penicillic acid and ochratoxin A to fluorescent derivatives by treatment with ammonia fumes.

SummaryA total of 204 psychrotrophic isolates from raw ewes' milk (hand and machine milked) were identified by conventional methods. In addition, a numerical taxonomic study was conducted on 180 of these isolates and 19 reference strains. Three of the isolates were yeasts. Using identification schemes, 54 isolates were assigned to genera of Gram-negative aerobic rods (Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Flavobacterium, MoraxellaandPsychrobacter), 48 were Enterobacteriaceae (Entero-bacter, Hafnia, Klebsiella, CitrobacterandSerratia) and one was identified asAeromonas hydrophila. The 98 Gram-positive isolates were identified asEnterococcus, Streptococcus, Leuconostoc, Lactococcus, Bacillus, Staphylococcus, Micrococcus, Aureobacterium, KurthiaandMicrobacterium. At the 82% similarity level (SSM), 18 clusters were formed. Cluster I included 34 strainsof Lactococcus, StreptococcusandLeuconostoc. Most of the 35 strains in cluster II wereEnterococcus. Clusters III and IV were identified asKurthiaandMicrobacteriumrespectively. Cluster V was identified asAureobacteriumand cluster VI consisted of coagulase-negative staphylococci. Gram-negative isolates formed 12 clusters:Aeromonas(one cluster), Enterobacteriaceae (two clusters),Flavobacterium(two clusters),PseudomonasandPsychrobacter immobilis(three clusters) andAcinetobacter(four clusters). Non-motile variants ofPs. fragiwere found.Enterococcusand Enterobacteriaceae did not have significant spoilage properties. As expected, Gram-negative aerobic rods were proteolytic and/or lipolytic even at low temperature. Contamination with certain types of psychrotrophs (Gram-negative aerobic rods and enterococci) seemed to be associated with the milking method. The isolate ofAes. hydrophilahad properties associated with virulence.

Factors affecting the susceptibility of Bacteroides fragilis subsp. fragilis to low temperature were examined. Predetermined numbers of cells were spread on agar media or suspended in enriched Trypticase soy broth and exposed to low temperature under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Exposure of 18-h growth of a freshly isolated B. fragilis strain to 4 degrees C aerobically or anaerobically resulted in a loss of at least 50% viability after 12 h. B. fragilis cells in early growth (6 h) were more tolerant to exposure at 4 degrees C than older cells (18 h). When the freshly isolated strain was repeatedly subcultured in the laboratory it was uniformly more cold tolerant than fresh clinical isolates. The incorporation of 1.0 M sucrose and 5 mM magnesium chloride into liquid media partially alleviated the lethal effects of cold temperature on B. fragilis subsp. fragilis.
