Background: Aflatoxins are one of the most important global concerns, especially in developing countries. They cause a wide spectrum of serious medical problems in human and animals and also economics losses.
Aims:In this study, it was evaluated the effect of Bifidobacterium bifidum PTCC 1644 and Lactobacillus fermentum PTCC 1744 isolates on the fungus growth rate and aflatoxin production in toxigenic Aspergillus parasiticus.
Methods: Mycelial growth inhibition of toxigenic Aspergillus parasiticus in the presence of Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus fermentum was investigated by pour plate technique and weighting method of mycelial mass. Reduction of aflatoxin was evaluated in yeast extract sucrose broth (YESB) at 30C after seven days of incubation using HPLC method. Also, reduction of aflatoxin rate was observed in the presence of the metabolites of lactic acid bacteria by HPLC method. The data were analyzed by SPSS 21.
Results: The presence of the Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus fermentum were affected significantly on the growth rate of Aspergillus parasiticus in comparison with controls without lactic acid bacteria (P≤0.05). Percentage of reductions in total aflatoxin and B1, B2, G1, G2 fractions by Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus fermentum were more than 99%. Furthermore, the percentage of reduction of standard aflatoxin B1, B2, G1, G2 fractions by Metabolites produced of lactic acid bacteria were approximately 88.8% to 99.8% (p≤0.05).
Conclusion: Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus fermentum can be employed as good biocontrol agents against growth and aflatoxin production by aflatoxigenic Aspergillus species.
