Abstract
Aflatoxins (AFs) and zearalenone (ZEN) are the most predominant mycotoxins in various food and feed. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate the antifungal activity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains and to study their ability to remove aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and zearalenone (ZEN) in vitro. Data revealed that S. cerevisiae NRLL Y-12633 showed higher antifungal activity compared to S. cerevisiae NRRL Y-1089. On the other hand, S. cerevisiae suspension exhibited higher antifungal activity than S. cerevisiae supernatant. Concerning the removal of AFB1, results indicated that after 30 min. S. cerevisiae NRRL Y-1089 displayed a higher ability to remove AFB1 at a concentration of 5.0 µg/mL with a percentage of reduction reaching 87.20% than S. cerevisiae NRRL Y-12633, which removed 21.00%. As for the removal of ZEN, results showed that after 30 min. S. cerevisiae NRRL Y-12633 successfully removed ZEN at a concentration of 5.0 µg/mL by 94.80%, whereas S. cerevisiae NRRL Y-1089 removed ZEN by 91.80%. Results also indicated that the removal of AFB1 increased by increasing the incubation time, whereas the removal of ZEN decreased by increasing the incubation time. Therefore, it could be concluded that S. cerevisiae strains could be applied as an additive to decrease the concentration of mycotoxins in food and feed.
期刊介绍:
Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry is an international and interdisciplinary research journal that focuses on all aspects of nanoscience, bioscience and applied chemistry. Submissions are solicited in all topical areas, ranging from basic aspects of the science materials to practical applications of such materials. With 6 issues per year, the first one published on the 15th of February of 2011, Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry is an open-access journal, making all research results freely available online. The aim is to publish original papers, short communications as well as review papers highlighting interdisciplinary research, the potential applications of the molecules and materials in the bio-field. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible.
