PCR detection assays for the ochratoxin-producing Aspergillus carbonarius and Aspergillus ochraceus species

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
These PCR assays, based on multi-copy sequences, are highly sensitive and specific and represent a good tool for an early detection of OTA-producing Aspergillus species and to prevent OTA entering the food chain.
