Production and analysis of citrinin in corn

Production and analysis of citrinin in corn

L K Jackson et al. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1978 Sep.

Abstract

A convenient method for the production and analysis of citrinin in corn is described. Up to 2.964 g of citrinin can be produced by Penicillium citrinum per kg of corn by harvesting on day 21 or later. The analysis method has a lower detection limit of 0.25 ppm. Heating citrinin-contaminated corn destroys citrinin but may produce another toxin instead.
