The present study investigated the effects of agitation speed, N (200, 500, 600 or 700 rpm), and dissolved oxygen concentration, C (120, >70, 70, 60, 10 or < 10%), on red pigment and citrinin production by Monascus purpureus ...

The production of red pigments and citrinin by Monascus purpureus CCT3802 was investigated in submerged batch cultures performed in two phases: in the first phase, cells were grown on glucose, at pH 4.5, 5.5 or 6.5; after ...

Breast cancer is one of the most lethal types of cancer and a leading cause of mortality among Women worldwide. Citrinin (CIT), a polyketide extracted from the fungus Penicillium citrinum, exhibits a wide range of biological ...

An amperometric biosensor based on horseradish peroxidase (EC1.11.1.7,H2O2-oxide-reductases) to determine the content of citrinin mycotoxin in rice samples is proposed by the first time. The method uses carbon paste ...

The development of an electrochemical immunosensor incorporated in a micro fluidic cell for quantification of citrinin (CIT) mycotoxin in rice samples is described for the first time. Both CIT present in rice samples and ...
