Popis: The high antimycotic activity of four kinds of spices, viz, Chinese cassia, cinnamon, clove and thyme, were tested as preservatives for agricultural commodities. Clove, thyme and a mixture of the four kinds of spice completely inhibited aflatoxin production on lentil seeds during eight weeks of incubation. Chinese cassia and cinnamon partially inhibited the aflatoxin production.
