Abstract
Advances in post-harvest
detection and control of fungal
contamination of cereals
Naresh Magan, Esther Garcia-Cela, Carol Verheecke-Vaessen and Angel Medina,
Cranfield University, UK
1 Introduction
2 Factors affecting the activity of spoilage moulds and mycotoxin
contamination
3 Volatiles as an early indicator of spoilage of stored cereals
4 Carbon dioxide monitoring for real-time identification of the risk of
spoilage moulds and mycotoxins in stored cereals
5 Control strategies to minimise spoilage and mycotoxin contamination of
stored grain: monitoring of relative humidity (RH) and temperature and
the use of molecular methods
6 Control strategies: hermetic storage of grain and use of natural
compounds
7 Control strategies: biological control and irradiation techniques
8 Control technologies: cold plasma technology and ozone fumigation
9 Conclusions
10 Where to look for further information
