Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin mainly produced by Aspergillus section Circumdati and section Nigri across the coffee chain. OTA is nephrotoxic and is a threat to human health. This review summarizes current knowledge on how to reduce OTA concentration in coffee from farm to cup. After a brief introduction to the OTA occurrence in coffee, current good management practices are introduced. The core of this review focuses on biocontrol and microbial decontamination by lactic acid bacteria, yeasts and fungi, and their associated enzymes currently reported in the literature. Special attention is given to publications closest to in vivo applications of biocontrol agents and microbial OTA adsorption or degradation agents. Finally, this review provides an opinion on which future techniques to promote within the coffee supply chain.
赭曲霉毒素 A(OTA)是一种霉菌毒素,主要由整个咖啡链中的圆环曲霉和尼格里曲霉产生。OTA 具有肾毒性,对人类健康构成威胁。本综述总结了目前关于如何降低从农场到咖啡杯中的 OTA 浓度的知识。在简要介绍了咖啡中的 OTA 发生情况后,介绍了当前的良好管理实践。本综述的核心内容侧重于目前文献中报道的乳酸菌、酵母菌和真菌及其相关酶的生物控制和微生物净化。特别关注了与生物控制剂和微生物 OTA 吸附或降解剂的体内应用最接近的出版物。最后,本综述就未来在咖啡供应链中推广哪些技术提出了意见。
期刊介绍:
Journal of Fungi (ISSN 2309-608X) is an international, peer-reviewed scientific open access journal that provides an advanced forum for studies related to pathogenic fungi, fungal biology, and all other aspects of fungal research. The journal publishes reviews, regular research papers, and communications in quarterly issues. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on paper length. Full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
