Abstract

In this study, fungal biomass production by some fungi, which were isolated from different cereal samples obtained from the southeast of Libya, was studied by using four mycological medium under shake and static conditions. It has been found that fungal biomass was higher under shake culture than under static conditions. It may be because of the adequate mass and heat transfer. Aspergillus carbonarius isolate produced higher fungal biomass on PDB under shake culture, whereas higher fungal biomass was obtained on MEB under static conditions. By A. ochraceus isolate, it was higher on MEB under shake culture, while it was higher on CPDB under static condition. By A. ochraceus CBS 588.68, it was higher on CPDB under shake culture and on MEB under static conditions. By A. niger 285522, it was higher on MEB under shake culture and on CPDB under static conditions. The results indicate that ochratoxin A production was detected earlier under shake culture than static conditions on the mycological media using the TLC technique.
