atmosphere and are common in soils. In soil analyses‚ using dilution plate techniques‚ Penicillium species are detected with high frequency (Domsch et al.‚ 1993). However‚ very little is known of interactions between Penicillium species and other soil fungi‚ or even on plan growth. Penicillium species generally occurr at greater soil depths than species of other genera‚ and have low concentrations in rhizosphere soils (Domsch et al.‚ 1993). Some species of Penicillium are well known for their activities

MYCOTOXINS [THE ENVIROMENTAL & ECONOMIC EFFECTS] OUTLINE INTRODUCTION: * What are mycotoxins? * “Mycotoxins (ie toxins produced by molds) are fungal metabolites that can contaminate foods and feeds and cause toxic effects in higher organisms that consume the contaminated commodities. Therefore‚ mycotoxin contamination of foods and feeds results is a serious food safety issue and affects the competitiveness of US agriculture in both domestic and export markets” (Cleveland T et al

the radish seeds. Allelopathy is the beneficial or harmful effects that one plant has on another plant by the release of chemicals. Allelopathy studies the interactions among plants‚ fungi‚ algae and bacteria with the organisms living in a certain ecosystem‚ interactions that are mediated by the secondary metabolites produced and exuded into the environment (Francisco A Macías‚ José MG Molinillo‚ Rosa M Varela‚ Juan CG Galindo 2007). The plants use allelotoxins‚ which are an allelochemical produced

soda‚" sodium benzoate is an FDA-approved‚ polyunsaturated fat that has been used by food manufacturers for over 80 years to inhibit microbial growth. As a food additive it is used as a preservative‚ effectively killing most yeasts‚ bacteria and fungi. Sodium benzoate is effective only in acidic conditions (pH < 3.6) making its use most prevalent in foods such as preserves‚ salad dressings (vinegar)‚ carbonated drinks (carbonic acid)‚ jams (citric acid)‚ fruit juices (citric acid)‚ and chinese food

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Pest insects are based on the potential damage on human purpose. They cause damage to the agricultural crops‚ consume and or damage harvested food‚ cause illness or unproductively to agricultural animals‚ and vector human disease. For centuries man had made innovative ways in combining pest insects‚ which leads to the invention of insecticides. Though insecticides contributed big in the elimination of pest insects‚ it also contributed ecological alteration due to its toxic

Cocaine is largely metabolized into two major metabolites benzoylecgonine (BE) and ecgonine methyl ester (EME) and two minor metabolites norcocaine (NCOC) and m- and p-hydroxycocaine (OH-COC) (Goldstein et al.‚ 2009). Benzoylecgonine is primarily produce in the liver by human carbozylerstrase type
