Aspergillus steynii and Aspergillus westerdijkiae as potential risk of OTA contamination in food products in warm climates

Aspergillus steynii and Aspergillus westerdijkiae are the main ochratoxin A (OTA) producing species of Aspergillus section Circumdati. Due to its recent description, few data are available about the influence of cophysiological factors on their growth and OTA production profiles. In this work, the e...
