This chapter describes ways to remove patulin contamination in the products trimming away rotten fruits or infected areas. stable against acidic pH, relatively at high temperature. Significant reduction toxin achieved during fermentation, rate disappearance dependent, among other factors, on yeast strain medium.

In addition, explains ochratoxin A grapes wines. Ochratoxin (OTA) wines from grown hot humid countries; Aspergillus carbonarius main OTA producer those producers are present undamaged may occur symptom-free grapes, although smaller amounts than damaged fruits.
