Method Description
Aspergillus species are ubiquitous molds that can produce dangerous mycotoxins, with A. flavus, A. fumigatus, A. niger, and A. terreus being of primary concern in food safety. Early detection of these species is crucial because they can produce aflatoxins and other toxic compounds that make products unsafe for consumption. The qPCR method provides rapid identification compared to traditional culture methods, enabling faster decision-making for product release or rejection.
