Subject:
grain elevators; corn; dust emissions; Penicillium; Aspergillus; Cladosporium; Alternaria; Helminthosporium; Fusarium; microbial contamination; feed processing
Abstract:
... Numbers of viable fungal propagules in corn dusts in southern Georgia were estimated during various farm and grain elevator operations in 1979, 1980, and 1982. A six-stage Andersen sampler for viable microbial particles was used to sample the dusts with various agar media. The most abundant fungi in corn dusts were species of yeasts: Aspergillus, Penicillium, Cladosporium, Alternaria. Helminthospo ...

Abstract:
... Airborne fungi were studied in the city of Athens using two complementary methods in which 136 concurrent samplings were carried out during the 12-month period from January until December 1998. A portable Burkard air sampler for agar plates was used for trapping the culturable portion of the mycobiota. Nineteen genera of fungi were identified and assessed in terms of total numbers and fluctuations ...

Abstract:
... El-Nagerabi SAF, Elshafie AE, AlKhanjari SS. 2013. Endophytic fungi associated with Ziziphus species from mountainous area of Oman and new records. Biodiversitas 14: 10-16. Ziziphus species of the family Rhamnaceae grow extensively in arid and semi-arid regions. It is possible that the endophytic fungi associated with this plant might enhance the host resistance to the environmental impacts. The e ...

Abstract:
... The ambient atmosphere is dominated with pollen and spores, which trigger allergic reactions and diseases and impact negatively on human health. A survey of pollen and fungal spores constituents of the atmosphere of Garki, Abuja (North-Central Nigeria) was carried out for 1 year (June 1, 2011–May 31, 2012). The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence and abundance of pollen and fungal spo ...

Abstract:
... The present aeromycological investigation was undertaken to study atmospheric fungal spores in Timişoara (western Romania). This study was carried out using a Hirst type volumetric sampler. The study revealed the existence of a rich airborne mycoflora. The atmospheric fungal spores were classified and evaluated into three groups (‘major’, ‘minor’ and ‘sporadic’) depending upon their catch percenta ...

Abstract:
... Potatoes production is the main source of income in A Limia (Northwest Spain). Most of the potatoes harvest is stored in piles in farmer´s warehouses without systems to control temperature and relative humidity and only a few industries have storage facilities with cooling systems. This study constitutes an approach to detecting fungal spores present inside potato warehouses and the influence of t ...
