Abstract
Twenty culture filtrates among the various isolated strains from foodstuffs were submitted for toxicity screening using HeLa cells and mice. Fourteen strains(70%) were toxic to both HeLa cells and mice, 17 strains(85%) to HeLa cell alone and 14 strains(70%) to mice alone. As a mass screening this method employed is feasible to detect mycotoxin-producing fungi. In most instances, the results obtained by HeLa cells were in good parellelism with those obtained by mice.
