Notes:
Optimum growth and maximum aflatoxin production by Aspergillus flavus were obtained on a basal medium containing 0.8 mg of zinc per liter. The effect of several other trace metals on the toxin production was evaluated. Aflatoxin production was inhibited by the presence of barium ions in the medium. Cadmium ions, in contrast, stimulated aflatoxin production.
