Abstract
Two strains of
Aspergillus ochraceus
and six of
Penicillium viridicatum
isolated from country cured hams were screened for production of ochratoxins A and B. None of the isolated
P. viridicatum
strains yielded detectable amounts of ochratoxin A or B, whereas both strains of
A. ochraceus
produced ochratoxins A and B on rice, defatted peanut meal, and country cured ham. After 21 days of incubation on ham, one-third of the toxin was found in the mycelial mat on the ham surface, whereas two-thirds had penetrated into the meat to a distance of 0.5 cm.
