Abstract

In order to evaluate the safety of agricultural products in Korea, we carried out work by screening of Fusarium species. which can produce deoxinivalenol(DON) from agricultural products in Western Gyeongnam, Korea. From 215 samples of soil agricultural products, 129 strains of Fusarium species were obtained. The production of DON was verified by thin layer chromatography(TLC) As the results of TLC, 25 strains were identified as DON producing strain. But only 10 strains were identified as DON producing strains by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The maximum DON producing strain No.41 was isolated from corn. In conclusion. the above results indicate that DON producing fungi contaminated agricultural products in Korea. Therefore further studies are required to accumulate more detailed data about the contamination of DON in various agricultural products.
