“…versicolor, but had little effect on the growth and toxin production of both A. flavus and A. ochraceus (Table 3). DISCUSSION It has been known for some time that certain crude drugs and spices contain substances with antifungal activity in their essential oils (1,2,4,5,9,10,(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20).…”

The inhibitory effects of 29 commercial powdered spices on the growth and toxin production of three species of toxigenic Aspergillus were observed by introducing these materials into culture media for mycotoxin production. Of the 29 samples tested, cloves, star anise seeds, and allspice completely inhibited the fungal growth, whereas most of the others inhibited only the toxin production. Eugenol extracted from cloves and thymol from thyme caused complete inhibition of the growth of both Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus versicolor at 0.4 mg/ml or less. At a concentration of 2 mg/ml, anethol extracted from star anise seeds inhibited the growth of all the strains.

o-Methoxycinnamaldehyde has been isolated and purified from powdered cinnamon. The compound inhibits the growth and toxin production of mycotoxinproducing fungi. The substance completely inhibited the growth of Aspergillus parasiticus and A. flavus at 100 ,tg/ml and A. ochraceus and A. versicolor at 200 ,ug/ml. It inhibited the production of aflatoxin B1 by over 90% at 6.25 ,tg/ml, ochratoxin A at 25 ,ug/ml, and sterigmatocystin at 50 ,ug/ml. The substance also displayed a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of five dermatophytoses species, e.g., Microsporum canis (minimum inhibitory concentration, 3.12 to 6.25 ,tg/ml).Interscience, New York.
