Abstract

The effect of ozone gas on mold and aflatoxin production in wheat grains imported from Argentine, Germany, Ukrainian, Australia and U.S.A and Egyptian wheat grains (Gamaza 7) were investigated. The treatment of wheat grains directly with ozone gas for 5 and 6 hours, the growth of Aspergillus flavaus was completely inhibited and consequently the total aflatoxin content was decreased. Cylinders of milling were found to be sources of fungal species pollution, total mould count and Aflatoxin production. The results suggest the use of ozone gas treatment for preservation of wheat grains during storage.
