Abstract
THE recent isolation1 of ochratoxin A from Aspergillus ochraceus Wilh., which has a widespread natural distribution, made the development of a rapid method for the detection and estimation of the mycotoxin desirable. The following methods have been used during screening of fungal strains and media for toxin production.
