Protocatechuic acid inhibits aflatoxin production and modulates gene expression in Aspergillus flavus

Abstract Aflatoxins, particularly Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), produced by Aspergillus flavus and other species, pose significant health risks due to their carcinogenic properties. This study investigates the inhibitory effects of Protocatechuic Acid (PCA) on mycotoxigenic fungi and AFB1 production. PCA dem...
