title: Production of alternarioi and alternariol monomethyl ether in natural substrates in comparison with semisynthetic culture medium.
abstract: The comparison In toxins production and growth byAlternarla strains in liquid, solid culture media and natural substrates (rice and sunflower) was evaluated. Ground rice- corn steep liquor medium (GRCS) was the more suitable medium for production of alternariol (AOH) and alternariol monomethyl ether(AME). The maximum levels produced were 676 μg/50ml AOH and 1570/50ml AME. Rice was better than sunflower In supporting toxins production. Different ratios AOH/AME were found according to the substrate evaluated.
