The Effects of Storage Period and Relative Humidity on Tombul Type Hazelnut Produced in Turkey (2001)

Abstract
Aflatoxin development was studied in Tombul type hazelnut inoculated with Aspergillus parasiticus NRRL 2999 and control, stored at 20±2 °C at 85±2 and 95±2% relative humidity (RH) on `10th 20th and 30th days. The mould-inoculated samples had different amounts of aflatoxins (B+G) ranging from 0.0 to 13092 μg/kg. At 85±2% and 95±2% RH with 20±2 °C storage temperature, The detected total amount of aflatoxins were 325 μg/kg and 13092 μg/kg respectively, while no aflatoxin formation was found in control group.
