Popis: | Zearalenone, an oestogenic mycotoxin produced by Fusarium sp., occurs naturally in agricultural commodities. Economic losses and health concerns associated to mycotoxins has attracted research interest towards exploring novel approaches to detoxify mycotoxin-contaminated food and feed. The aim of the present work was to study the ability of 11 aflatoxin-degrading Bacillus strains to degrade ZEA. In addition, a qualitative assessment of protease, amylase and cellulase activity of the studied Bacillus strains was made. All strains were able to degrade 58-96.9% ZEA after 72 h. Toxicity towards Artemia salina was significantly reduced (P < 0.0001). Degradation extracts fluorescence decreased 50% indicating a probable cleavage of the lactone ring. Strains RC1A, RC3A and RC6A showed a remarkable enzymatic activity, showing potential to be used as feed additives. |
