AbstrakAflatoksin merupakan senyawa metabolit sekunder dari kapang Aspergillus flavus dan Aspergillus parasiticus yang dapat mengontaminasi bahan pangan atau pakan sehingga berbahaya bagi kesehatan hewan dan manusia. Kontaminasi kapang penghasil aflatoksin banyak ditemukan pada bahan pangan dan pakan yang berasal dari produk pertanian. Jagung merupakan salah satu produk pertanian yang mudah terkontaminasi oleh kapang penghasil aflatoksin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh isolat kapang Aspergillus spp. penghasil aflatoksin pada jagung pipilan yang dijual di sekitar Bekasi, Jawa Barat. Isolasi kapang dilakukan menggunakan metode dilution plating pada medium Dichloran-Glycerol. Hasil penelitian memperoleh 12 isolat kapang, dengan warna koloni hijau (J1, J2, J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, J9, J10, J12), hitam (J11), dan jingga (J8). Identifikasi dilakukan dengan cara mengamati morfologi kapang secara makroskopik dan mikroskopik pada medium Malt Extract Agar. Isolat kapang yang diduga memiliki kemiripan dengan A. flavus berjumlah 6 isolat, yaitu J1, J2, J4, J6, J10, dan J12. Selanjutnya dilakukan uji konfirmasi menggunakan medium selektif Aspergillus flavus dan parasiticus Agar. Terdapat 2 isolat kapang, yaitu J1 dan J4, yang menunjukkan pigmentasi sebalik koloni berwarna pada medium selektif AFPA. Isolat kapang yang ditemukan pada jagung pipilan diharapkan dapat memberikan informasi kepada petani dan peternak mengenai jenis kapang yang dapat menyebabkan kontaminasi pada jagung, sehingga mereka dapat menjaga dan meningkatkan kualitas jagung untuk mengurangi kerugian dalam bidang ekonomi dan kesehatan.Abstract Aflatoxin is a secondary metabolite secreted by the mold Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus that may contaminate food or feed so harmful to human and animal health. Contamination of aflatoxin-producing mold is commonly found in food and feed which derived from agricultural products. Corn is one of the agricultural products that are easily contaminated by aflatoxin-producing mold. The study aims to isolate the aflatoxin-producing mold Aspergillus spp. in stripped corn vend around Bekasi, West Java. The isolation was conducted by using the method of dilution plating on Dichloran-Glycerol medium. The study obtained 12 isolates of mold, with green colony color (J1, J2, J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, J9, J10, J12), black (J11), and jingga (J8). Identification was conducted by observing the morphology of mold on Malt Extract Agar macroscopically and microscopically. The isolates that allegedly have similarities to A. flavus are J1, J2, J4, J6, J10, and J12. Furthermore, a confirmatory test was preceed by using a selective medium of Aspergillus flavus and parasiticus agar. There are 2 isolates of molds, J1 and J4, which showed yellowish jingga pigmentation like the positive control of A. flavus. The isolates of mold found in the stripped corn may provide information to farmers and breeders about the type of mold that can cause contamination in corn, so that they can anticipate in advance and improve the quality of the corn to reduce losses in economic and health perspectives.

W pracy oceniono skład chemiczny oraz aktywność przeciwgrzybową suszonych ziół przyprawowych – bazylii, oregano, rozmarynu i tymianku. Susze zakupiono w sieci handlowej w opakowaniach jednostkowych. W wymieszanym i rozdrobnionym materiale oznaczono zawartość: suchej masy, białka ogółem, cukrów ogółem, polifenoli ogółem i olejków eterycznych. Do oceny aktywności przeciwgrzybowej użyto 12 szczepów grzybów: Alternaria alternata., Aspergillus flavus, A. fumigatus, A. niger, Cladosporium herbarum, Fusarium oxysporum, Penicillium cyclopium oraz Eurotium amstelodami, E. chevalieri, E. herbariorum, E. repens, E. rubrum. W przypadku grzybów z rodzaju Eurotium stosowano podłoże Agar DG18, a w pozostałych – Malt Extract Agar. Na podłożach zawierających dodatek suszu (1 %) prowadzono doświadczalne hodowle grzybów, a na podłożach bez suszu – hodowle kontrolne. Próbę kontrolną pozytywną stanowił benzoesan sodu (0,05 %). W 3. 6. i 9. dobie inkubacji mierzono średnice kolonii doświadczalnych oraz kontrolnych i obliczano procentową inhibicję wzrostu grzybów powodowaną przez susze. Stwierdzono, że aktywność przeciwgrzybowa była zróżnicowana w zależności od rodzaju suszu, gatunku grzyba i czasu inkubacji. W 9. dniu doświadczenia susz z oregano odznaczający się największą zawartością olejku (2,40 % s.m.) i dużą zawartością polifenoli (4,06 % s.m.) powodował istotnie największe średnie zahamowanie wzrostu zarówno grzybów Eurotium ssp. (95,5 %), jak i pozostałych grzybów (90,2 %). Susz bazyliowy o najmniejszej zawartości olejku i polifenoli, a największej – białka ogółem stymulował wzrost części grzybów. Badane susze powodowały największe zahamowanie wzrostu kolonii A. fumigatus, A. alternata i E. amstelodami, a najmniejsze – A. niger i E. rubrum. Hamowanie wzrostu grzybów malało wraz z czasem inkubacji, ale różnice między średnim zahamowaniem wzrostu grzybów w 6. i 9. dniu hodowli były nieistotne. Susze z oregano, tymianku i rozmarynu efektywniej hamowały wzrost kolonii grzybów niż benzoesan sodu.

The physiology of three groups of morphologically similar wood-rotting polypores, which produce extracellular oxidases as indicated by positive reactions with guaiacol, was studied comparatively.The inability to oxidize tyrosine and phenols, including guaiacol, in 'spot tests' distinguished P. cinnabarinus (Jacq. ex Fr.) Karst. from P. sanguineus (L. ex Fr.) Murr. and P. coccineus (Fr.) Bond. and Sing. growing on a tyrosine medium.The possible application of these methods for obtaining more specific distinctions within the two larger groups, the 'guaiacum-positive', lignin-decomposing and the 'guaiacum-negative' organisms, is indicated.The three groups separated on the basis of differential growth on malt extract agar at 35.2 °C.P. cinnabarinus grew slower generally than P. sanguineus and P. coccineus on malt extract agar between 20 °C and 40 °C and on various nitrogenous and phenolic substrates.There were indications that differences in the history of the isolates might have been a factor contributing to the intraspecific variations observed in growth and pigmentation.The pigments obtained from malt extract cultures of the three groups were the same.Eighteen, out of a total of 41 different ninhydrin-reacting compounds, were common to all isolates of the three groups grown in asparagine medium. Three compounds were specific to certain groups and 20 were distributed randomly between the isolates.

Dry Cured Ham

Most terverticillate penicillia isolated from dry-cured meat products are toxigenic, but their ability to produce hazardous metabolites on meat-based substrates is not well known. The production of extrolites by selected terverticillate penicillia isolated from dry-cured ham has been studied on carbohydrate-rich media (malt extract agar, Czapek yeast autolysate agar, rice extract agar, and rice), meat extract triolein salt agar, and ham slices. Chloroform extracts from the selected strains grown on malt extract agar were toxic for the brine shrimp (Artemia salina) larvae and VERO cells at a concentration of 2 mg/ml, but 0.02 mg/ml produced no toxic effect. Analysis by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with photodiode array detection (DAD) or with mass spectrometry (MS) and an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) source revealed different biologically active metabolites: cyclopiazonic acid and rugulovasine A from Penicillium commune; verrucosidin, anacine, puberuline, verrucofortine, and viridicatols from Penicillium polonicum; arisugacin and viridicatols from Penicillium echinulatum; and compactin and viridicatols from Penicillium solitum. Most of these metabolites, including the amino acid–derived compounds, were produced in the media containing high levels of carbohydrates. High concentrations of nitrogen compounds in the medium does not imply a greater production of the metabolites studied, not even those derived from the amino acids. However, molds growing on dry-cured ham are able to synthesize limited amounts of some secondary metabolites, a fact not previously reported. The combination of HPLC coupled with DAD and MS-APCI was useful for identification of closely related terverticillate Penicillium species from dry-cured ham. These techniques could be used to characterize the risk associated with the potential production of secondary metabolites in cured meats.

ABSTRACT Aspergillus spp. cause disease in a broad range of organisms, but it is unknown if strains are specialized for particular hosts. We evaluated isolates of Aspergillus flavus,Aspergillus fumigatus, and Aspergillus nidulansfor their ability to infect bean leaves, corn kernels, and insects (Galleria mellonella). Strains of A. flavus did not affect nonwounded bean leaves, corn kernels, or insects at 22°C, but they killed insects following hemocoelic challenge and caused symptoms ranging from moderate to severe in corn kernels and bean leaves injured during inoculation. The pectinase P2c, implicated in aggressive colonization of cotton bolls, is produced by most A. flavus isolates, but its absence did not prevent colonization of bean leaves. Proteases have been implicated in colonization of animal hosts. All A. flavus strains produced very similar patterns of protease isozymes when cultured on horse lung polymers. Quantitative differences in protease levels did not correlate with the ability to colonize insects. In contrast to A. flavus, strains ofA. nidulans and A. fumigatus could not invade living insect or plant tissues or resist digestion by insect hemocytes. Our results indicate that A. flavus has parasitic attributes that are lacking in A. fumigatus and A. nidulans but that individual strains of A. flavus are not specialized to particular hosts.
