This study developed a fast molecular test using real-time PCR to detect harmful Aspergillus fungi in grains and seeds. Instead of waiting 3-5 days for traditional culture methods, this new test can identify the fungi in just hours by detecting specific DNA patterns. The test was tested on 140 samples of cereals and oilseeds and proved more accurate than traditional methods, making it useful for food safety in markets and processing plants.

This study developed a fast molecular test to detect harmful fungi (Aspergillus species) in grains and seeds. Traditional fungal identification takes 3-5 days, but the new PCR-based method can produce results in hours. Testing 140 grain and seed samples, the new method successfully identified two dangerous Aspergillus species that produce toxic compounds harmful to human health. This advancement helps ensure food safety by enabling quicker detection of contamination in food production facilities.
