Influence of storage conditions of apples on growth and patulin production by Penicillium expansum

Effects of Aliphatic Aldehydes on the Growth and Patulin Production ofPenicillium expansumin Apple Juice

“…In contrast, the alkanals and alkenals consisting of 8-10 carbons, including octanal (11), (E)-2-octenal (12), nonanal (13), (E)-2-nonenal (14), decanal (15), and (E)-2-decenal (16), significantly enhanced patulin accumulation (significance level, 5%). In particular, the patulin concentrations in the culture broth containing octanal and (E)-2-octenal were 7.9 and 7.8 times higher respectively than that of the control.…”

“…Since patulin production in apples usually occurs after harvesting, appropriate quality control of post-harvest apples, such as adequate handling and storage conditions, is very important to prevent patulin contamination. [11][12][13][14][15] The CAC has been preparing guidelines to reduce patulin in apples. Chemiy To whom correspondence should be addressed.…”

“…However, the major sources of contamination are apples and apple products, which are also the most important source of patulin in the human diet (Baert et al, 2007;Murillo-Arbizu et al, 2009;Reddy et al, 2010). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified patulin as not carcinogenic (group 3), although it has been shown to cause neurotoxic and mutagenic effects in animals (IARC, 2002).…”
