Modeling Temperature Requirements for Growth and Toxin Production of Alternaria spp. Associated with Tomato

mycolabadmin

Researchers studied how temperature affects three types of Alternaria fungi that infect tomatoes and produce harmful toxins. They found that warm temperatures between 25-30°C are best for fungal growth and toxin production, though different species prefer slightly different temperatures. The study created mathematical formulas to predict when these fungi will contaminate tomatoes, which could help farmers prevent losses and protect food safety.

This research examines how dangerous fungal poisons (mycotoxins) found in contaminated food can be detected in deceased individuals during autopsies. These toxins, produced by common molds, can cause serious health problems including liver cancer, kidney disease, and immune system damage. The study proposes procedures for forensic investigators to collect and analyze these toxins from body tissues and fluids to help solve cases involving poisoning or chronic toxin exposure.
