Mycoflora and mycotoxins of Brazilian cashew kernels.

Kernel samples of common and dwarf Brazilian cashew nuts were examined for fungi and mycotoxins. In general, dwarf cashews were more contaminated than comnon cashews. A total of 37 fungal species were identified with Aspergillus niger being the dominant species.  Multimycotoxin analysis by TLC and HPLC were positive for mycotoxins, particularly from the infected samples. Aflatoxins were not detected by HPLC.
