ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Fumonisin B1 level in culture material and in naturally contaminated corn by F. moniliforme was reduced by 30 and about 40%, respectively, by ammonia treatment. Atmospheric ammoniation of corn did not appear to be an effective method for detoxification of F. moniliforme contaminated corn.
