This study determined the biotic interaction between 30 non-toxigenic indigenous strains of Aspergillus niger aggregate, Aspergillus flavus, Trichoderma spp., Mucor spp., Cladosporium spp., Ulocladium spp., Curvularia spp., Absidia spp., Geotrichum spp. and Acremonium spp., isolated from soil destined for maize crops, with respect to their ability to prevent ochratoxin A (OTA) production by A. carbonarius on "in vitro" assay, on liquid and solid medium. OTA production was completely inhibited when A. carbonarius was inoculated in a interactive mixed culture with all A. niger aggregate strains assayed, a 80 % of Trichoderma spp. strains, a 40 % of Cladosporium spp. strains, Acremonium spp and Geotrichum spp; only one strain of A. flavus tested was able to completely inhibit the mycotoxin accumulation. OTA production increased when A. carbonarius ACS 8 was growing on liquid interactive mixed culture with Mucor spp strains. These results demonstrated that OTA production by Aspergillua carbonarius strain was significantly influenced by the presence of different non-toxigenic fungal strains when growing together on paired cultures.

The existence of ochratoxin A (OTA) in agricultural products poses significant threats to human health and environment, underscoring the critical need for its prompt and precise quantification. A particle counting immunosensor for the highly sensitive detection of OTA was presented, employing SiO@CuO nanoparticles to facilitate click chemistry. The quantity of SiO@CuO nanoparticles, and consequently the Cu²⁺ concentration, can be directly altered through the immune response involving OTA.

Here, we report a SERS based VFA using PNC as a sensing substrate for highly sensitive multiplex mycotoxins detection. The PNC was fabricated by filtration-based self-assembled monodisperse SiO NPs on a filter membrane as a template, and the obtained PNC had an ordered complementary inverse opal structure. In parallel, three kinds of Raman dyes encoding Au@Ag, Au@Ag and Au@Ag SERS nanotags were synthesized for the detection of OTA, AFB1 and ZON.
