Abstract

A total of 60 samples of luncheon and basterma (30 from each) were gathered randomly from different supermarkets in Assuit Govermorate. They analyzed for determinating of the total fungi and yeast count using direct plate method on dichloran ros-bengal agar medium as well as identification of the isolated fungi. Mycotoxins production were detected using Thin Layer Chromatographic technique. The results revealed that total mould count / gm of examined samples of luncheon and basterma were1.86 X 102 and 1.29 X 102 respectively, The total yeast count / gm was 1.8 X 101 in luncheon and 1.1 X101 in basterma. Aspergillus was the most prevalent genus contaminating 96.7% and 53.3 % of luncheon and basterma samples respectively and comprising 30.9 % and 23.6% of the total fungi in both types of samples respectively, the predominant species of Aspergillus in luncheon were A.flavus (56.7%), A.Fumigatus (23.3), A.oryzae (20%), and A.niger (20%). While those recovered from basterma were A.Flavus (10%) A.niger (36.7%) and A.tamari (6.6%). Penicillum occupied the second prevalent genus, it was encountered in (40%) and (33.3%) of samples of luncheon and basterma respeclively and matching (8.3%) and (13.6%) of total fungi on two types of samples respectively, the predominant species of Penicillum recovered from luncheon were P.oxalicum (23.3%), P.janthinellum (10%) and P.glabrum (6.6%), and those recovered from basterma were P.oxalicum (16.7%), P.expanus (10%) and P.brevicompatum (6.6%). Fusarium was the third frequent genus Contaminating (23.3%) of both luncheon and basterma and constituting (4.9%) and (7.9%) of total fungi on luncheon and basterma respectively, one spp. of Fusarium could be detected from luncheon, it was F. verticillioides (23.3%), and two spp. from basterma (F.nygamai6.7%) and (F.verticillioides13.3%). The remaining fungi was Rhizopus spp. which contaminate13.3 % and 6.7% of luncheon and basterma respectively and comprising 2.9% and 2.1%of the total fungi of two types of samples respectively. In this study 4 types of mycontoxins were isolated from 26.7% of luncheon and from 13.3% of basterma in which Aflaloxin B1, Ochratoxin A, Stregmatocyein and Zaeralenone were detected in 13.3%, 3.3%, 6.7% and 3.3% of luncheon respectively. The public health hazard associated with its consumption are discussed.
