摘要: Ochratoxin A (OTA) can be detected worldwide from various food and feed sources. It is produced byPenicillium nordicum andP. verrucosum as well by variousAspergillus species, withA. ochraceus andA. carbonarius the predominant producers. Various pairs of PCR primers based on AFLP, RAPD specific to ribosomal RNA genes coding for calmodulin OTA biosynthetic pathway components were recently developed detect identify producers in conventional real-time assays. Application such assays contaminated samples was demonstrated only few cases. The current review gives an updated overview over methods at hand.
