Antifungal activity of potential probiotic Limosilactobacillus fermentum strains against toxigenic aflatoxin-producing aspergilli

Antifungal activity of potential probiotic strains against Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus niger is shown in Figure. (A) A. flavus covered the entire plate in the absence of probiotics. (B) The potential probiotics ABRIIFBI-6 and ABRIIFBI-7 were able to inhibit the growth of A. flavus, whereas PTCC 1745, used as a control. (C) A. niger covered the entire plate in the absence of probiotics. (D) The potential probiotic ABRIIFBI-6 was able to inhibit the growth of A. niger similarly to A. flavus, but ABRIIFBI-7 only slightly inhibit the growth of A. niger. Furthermore, strain PTCC 1745, used as a control.
