Abstract
The suitability of dried navy, pinto, and kidney beans as substrates for the support of growth and aflatoxin production by Aspergillus parasiticus was investigated. Inoculated beans adjusted to 20, 25, or 30% moisture were incubated at 21, 28, or 35 C for 1, 3, or 5 weeks. Aflatoxins were produced on all substrates having 25 or 30% moisture when incubation was at 21, 28, or 35 C. Substrates containing 30% moisture and incubated at 28 C supported maximum aflatoxin production. There was a decrease in aflatoxin concentrations after these maxima were reached.
