Abstract
Influence of some volatile compounds on different toxigenic moulds and mycotoxin production is studied. Formic acid inhibited the production of cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), and roridin by Penicillium griseofulvum and Myrothecium roridum respectively, while aniline was effective in t he inhibition of citrinin production by P. citrinum in individual cult ures. In mixed cultures influence of volatile compounds varied.
