Abstract
Viticulture has been an important economic sector for centuries. In recent decades, global wine production has fluctuated between 250 and almost 300 million hectoliters, and in 2022, the value of wine exports reached EUR 37.6 billion. Climate change and the associated higher temperatures could favor the occurrence of ochratoxin A (OTA) in wine. OTA is a mycotoxin produced by some species of the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium and has nephrotoxic, immunotoxic, teratogenic, hepatotoxic, and carcinogenic effects on animals and humans. The presence of this toxin in wine is related to the type of wine-red wines are more frequently contaminated with OTA-and the geographical location of the vineyard. In Europe, the lower the latitude, the greater the risk of OTA contamination in wine. However, climate change could increase the risk of OTA contamination in wine in other regions. Due to their toxic effects, the development of effective and environmentally friendly methods to prevent, decontaminate, and degrade OTA is essential. This review summarises the available research on biological aspects of OTA prevention, removal, and degradation.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a polyketide mycotoxin that commonly contaminates agricultural products and causes significant economic losses. In this study, the efficient OTA-degrading strain AP19 was isolated from vineyard soil and was identified as Acinetobacter pittii. Compared with growth in nutrient broth supplemented with OTA (OTA-NB), strain AP19 grew faster in nutrient broth (NB), but the ability of the resulting cell lysates to remove OTA was weaker. After cultivation in NB, the cell lysate of strain AP19 was able to remove 100% of 1 mg/L OTA within 18 h. The cell lysate fraction > 30 kDa degraded 100% of OTA within 12 h, while the fractions < 30 kDa were practically unable to degrade OTA. Further anion exchange chromatography of the > 30 kDa fraction yielded two peaks exhibiting significant OTA degradation activity. The degradation product was identified as OTα. Amino acid metabolism exhibited major transcriptional trends in the response of AP19 to OTA. The dacC gene encoding carboxypeptidase was identified as one of the contributors to OTA degradation. Soil samples inoculated with strain AP19 showed significant OTA degradation. These results provide significant insights into the discovery of novel functions in A. pittii, as well as its potential as an OTA decomposer.

Abstract
Mycotoxins can be found in many foods consumed by humans and animals. These substances are secondary metabolites of some fungi species and are resistant to technological processes (cooking, frying, baking, distillation, fermentation). They most often contaminate products of animal (beef, pork, poultry, lamb, fish, game meat, milk) and plant origin (cereals, processed cereals, vegetables, nuts). It is estimated that about 25% of the world's harvest may be contaminated with mycotoxins. These substances damage crops and may cause mycotoxicosis. Many mycotoxins can be present in food, together with mold fungi, increasing the exposure of humans and animals to them. In this review we characterized the health risks caused by mycotoxins found in food, pet food and feed. The most important groups of mycotoxins are presented in terms of their toxicity and occurrence.

Abstract
Bacillus spp. have been used as a biocontrol strategy to eliminate/reduce toxic fungicides in viticulture. Furthermore, the presence of fungi that are resistant to commonly used products is frequent, highlighting the need for new biocontrol strains. Aspergillus carbonarius can produce ochratoxins, including ochratoxin A (OTA), which has a regulatory maximum allowable limit for grape products. The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of four Amazonian strains of Bacillus (P1, P7, P11, and P45) to biocontrol A. carbonarius and various forms of ochratoxins in grapes. Berries treated with strain P1 presented no fungal colonies (100% reduction), while P7, P11 and P45 strains caused a reduction of 95, 95 and 61% on fungal counts, respectively. Six forms of ochratoxin were found in the grapes inoculated with A. carbonarius, including ochratoxin α, ochratoxin β, ochratoxin α methyl-ester, ochratoxin α amide, N-formyl-ochratoxin α amide, and OTA. Four of these ochratoxin forms (ochratoxin β, ochratoxin α methyl-ester, ochratoxin α amide, N-formyl-ochratoxin α amide) are reported for the first time in grapes. These ochratoxins were identified using liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QToF-MS). All Bacillus strains inhibited the synthesis of OTA, which is the most toxic form of ochratoxin. No ochratoxin form was found when P1 and P7 were used. Although some forms of ochratoxin were detected in grapes treated with Bacillus spp. P11 and P45, the levels decreased by 97%. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the inhibition of Aspergillus carbonarius-derived ochratoxin by Bacillus species. P1 strain, identified as Bacillus velezensis, was found to be the most promising for completely inhibiting fungal growth and production of all ochratoxins.

Abstract
Ochratoxins (OTs) are mycotoxins frequently found in wines, and their contamination can occur during any stage of the winemaking process. Ochratoxin A (OTA) has been the most widely reported and the only one whose concentrations are legislated in this beverage. However, ochratoxin B, ochratoxin A methyl ester, ochratoxin B methyl ester, ochratoxin A ethyl ester, ochratoxin B ethyl ester, ochratoxin α, ochratoxin β, OTα methyl ester, OTA ethyl amide, and OTA glucose ester have also been reported in wines. Thus, detecting only OTA would lead to the underestimation of ochratoxin levels, which is a risk to human health. Considering the threat represented by the presence of ochratoxins in wines and the long-term health problems that they can cause in wine drinkers, this paper aims to review reports of the last 10 years regarding the presence of different ochratoxins in wines and how the winemaking process influences the degree of contamination, mainly by OTA. Additionally, toxicity from human exposure due to the consumption of contaminated wines is addressed.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
With the present work, we aimed to assess the occurrence of ochratoxigenic fungi and Ochratoxin A (OTA) in dried grapes from Tunisia.
Methods
Dried grapes samples (n = 90) were investigated for the presence of ochratoxigenic fungi, which were further characterized at the species level through amplification of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product sequencing. Fungal isolates were tested for their ochratoxigenic potential by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD), as well as dried grapes samples after an immunoaffinity column (IAC) clean-up procedure.
Results
Black Aspergilli isolates were the dominant genre among the filamentous fungi found in dried grapes samples and were the only OTA-producing fungi encountered. Aspergillus niger aggregate were the most frequently found isolates reaching 70%, 80%, and 85% in dried grapes samples from regions of Kelibia, Sfax, and Rafraf, respectively, while covered 100% of the relevant mycobiota found in imported samples. Aspergillus carbonarius isolates were found only in Sfax’s and Kelibia’s samples, while uniseriate Aspergilli were found between 7 and 20% in dried grapes from Kelibia, Sfax, and the imported samples. The in vitro OTA production test showed that 88.9% of OTA-producing isolates belonged to A. carbonarius with OTA levels varying from 0.06 to 1.32 μg/g of Czapek Yeast Agar (CYA). The remaining OTA-producing fungi (11.1 %) belonged to A. niger aggregate group having a maximum OTA potential of 2.88 μg/g CYA, and no uniseriate Aspergilli isolate was able to produce OTA. All dried grapes samples were free of OTA presence.
Conclusion
According to the present study’s findings, no OTA contamination was recorded in the investigated samples from Tunisian market. Nevertheless, the presence of strong OTA producers A. carbonarius in samples originated from the two out of three studied Tunisian regions, as well the high incidences of Aspergillus niger aggregate group with an attested potential for OTA production in all samples, necessitates further research on Tunisian dried grapes. Additionally, a continuous analysis of staple food of the Mediterranean diet is imperative to insure the best quality for the consumers and prevent potential health problems.

Pest Management and Ochratoxin A Contamination in Grapes: A Review. Toxins (Basel) 2020; 12:toxins12050303.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is the most toxic member of ochratoxins, a group of toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi. The most relevant species involved in OTA production in grapes is Aspergillus carbonarius. Berry infection by A. carbonarius is enhanced by damage to the skin caused by abiotic and biotic factors. Insect pests play a major role in European vineyards, and Lepidopteran species such as the European grapevine moth Lobesia botrana are undoubtedly crucial. New scenarios are also emerging due to the introduction and spread of allochthonous pests as well as climate change. Such pests may be involved in the dissemination of OTA producing fungi even if confirmation is still lacking and further studies are needed. An OTA predicting model is available, but it should be integrated with models aimed at forecasting L. botrana phenology and demography in order to improve model reliability.

Effect of Aspergillus carbonarius on ochratoxin a levels, volatile profile and antioxidant activity of the grapes and respective wines. Food Res Int 2019; 126:108687.

Abstract
Aspergillus carbonarius can produce a possibly carcinogenic mycotoxin named ochratoxin A (OTA). The metabolism of this fungus can also impact grape and wine quality as it influences the volatile and phenolic profiles, which are related to aroma and antioxidant activity, respectively. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of A. carbonarius on OTA levels and for the first time on volatile profile and antioxidant activity of grapes and their respective wines. Cabernet Sauvignon (CS, red) grapes presented higher susceptibility to A. carbonarius than Moscato Italico (MI, white) grapes and OTA levels in their respective musts were in accordance with this same trend. However, vinification of red grapes resulted in 67% reduction of OTA, while the reduction observed with white wines was 45%. The presence of acids (hexanoic, octanoic, nonanoic and decanoic, fatty odor) was found to be an indicative of the fungus incidence in grapes. These acids were precursors of esters that might impart negative aroma (methyl nonanoate and isoamyl octanoate, fatty odor) or provide desirable fruity characteristics (ethyl hexanoate, ethyl octanoate and methyl octanoate) for wine. In addition, terpenes were detected only in wines produced with grapes (CS and MI) inoculated with A. carbonarius. The presence of A. carbonarius increased the antioxidant activity of CS grapes. For MI grapes and both wines (CS and MI) no differences were verified in the antioxidant activity of the samples affected or not affected by this fungus. Although A. carbonarius occurrence has shown no influence on the antioxidant activity of wines, it produced OTA and has negatively influenced the wine odor profile, due to the production of some volatiles that impart a deleterious effect on wine aroma.

Abstract
Yeasts are able to reduce the levels of ochratoxin A in fermentative processes; and, through their enzymatic complex, these micro-organisms are also capable of forming modified mycotoxins. These mycotoxins are often underreported, and may increase health risks after ingestion of contaminated food. In this sense, this study aims to evaluate whether the presence of ochratoxin A influences yeast growth kinetic parameters and to elucidate the formation of modified ochratoxin by Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains during fermentation. Three S. cerevisiae strains (12 M, 01 PP, 41 PP) were exposed to OTA at the concentrations of 10, 20 and 30 μg/L. The Baranyi model was fitted to the growth data (Log CFU/mL), and the identification of modified ochratoxins was performed through High Resolution Mass Spectrometry. The presence of ochratoxin A did not influence the growth of S. cerevisiae strains. Four pathways were proposed for the metabolization of OTA: dechlorination, hydrolysis, hydroxylation, and conjugation. Among the elected targets, the following were identified: ochratoxin α, ochratoxin β, ochratoxin α methyl ester, ochratoxin B methyl ester, ethylamide ochratoxin A, ochratoxin C, hydroxy-ochratoxin A, hydroxy-ochratoxin A methyl ester, and ochratoxin A cellobiose ester. These derivatives formed from yeast metabolism may contribute to the occurrence of underreporting levels of total mycotoxin in fermented products.

β-Fructofuranosidase and β -D-Fructosyltransferase from New Aspergillus carbonarius PC-4 Strain Isolated from Canned Peach Syrup: Effect of Carbon and Nitrogen Sources on Enzyme Production. ScientificWorldJournal 2019; 2019:6956202. [PMID: 30728756 PMCID: PMC6341271 DOI: 10.1155/2019/6956202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2018] [Revised: 11/16/2018] [Accepted: 12/02/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
β-fructofuranosidase (invertase) and β-D-fructosyltransferase (FTase) are enzymes used in industrial processes to hydrolyze sucrose aiming to produce inverted sugar syrup or fructooligosaccharides. In this work, a black Aspergillus sp. PC-4 was selected among six filamentous fungi isolated from canned peach syrup which were initially screened for invertase production. Cultivations with pure carbon sources showed that invertase and FTase were produced from glucose and sucrose, but high levels were also obtained from raffinose and inulin. Pineapple crown was the best complex carbon source for invertase (6.71 U/mL after 3 days of cultivation) and FTase production (14.60 U/mL after 5 days of cultivation). Yeast extract and ammonium chloride nitrogen sources provided higher production of invertase (6.80 U/mL and 6.30 U/mL, respectively), whereas ammonium nitrate and soybean protein were the best nitrogen sources for FTase production (24.00 U/mL and 24.90 U/mL, respectively). Fermentation parameters for invertase using yeast extract were YP/S = 536.85 U/g and PP = 1.49 U/g/h. FTase production showed values of YP/S = 2,627.93 U/g and PP = 4.4 U/h using soybean protein. The screening for best culture conditions showed an increase of invertase production values by 5.10-fold after 96 h cultivation compared to initial experiments (fungi bioprospection), while FTase production increased by 14.60-fold (44.40 U/mL) after 168 h cultivation. A. carbonarius PC-4 is a new promising strain for invertase and FTase production from low cost carbon sources, whose synthesized enzymes are suitable for the production of inverted sugar, fructose syrups, and fructooligosaccharides.
