Abstract
Corn is an important food source for mankind and animals. However this food source commodity faces frequent spoilage and contaminated by a wide range of fungi. These fungi are also capable of producing mycotoxins which are hazardous to the consumers. Cornmeal samples were collected from nine states throughout Malaysia and further cultured to isolate the fungi such as Aspergillus species Fusarium species and Penicillium species. A total of 16 isolates of Fusarium species namely F. verticillioides 7 Fusarium semitectum 6 and Fusarium proliferatum 3 were tested for beauvericin SEA analysis. The isolates were inoculated on sterilised cornmeal and incubated for a month prior to extraction. The extracts containing SEA were analysed using Ultra Fast liquid Chromatography UFLC. Result showed only three F. proliferatum isolates four F. semitectum isolates and five F. verticillioides isolates produced beauvericin.
