Description Present investigation was carried out to isolate the
fungi and bacteria associated uith different raisin samples
collected from markets of different places. The ability of
fungi to produce toxins and their relationship uith chemical
analysis of sampl'es was also studied.
In all, thirty-two samples of raisins were collected
from different places. Isolation of fungi from these samples
yielded seven cultures of different fungi, out of which four
belonging to genus Aspergillus one each of Penicjllium,
Fusarjum and Rhizopus. In isolation of bacteria in all four
cultures of different bacteria as follows ' Pseudomonas sp.,
Micrococcus sp., Xanthompnas, sp. and Bacillus sp. uere obtained.
Results indicated that raisins uere heavily infected uith
£• flav.u3» fL» niqer and Pseudomonas sp.
The test to detect contamination with toxigenic fungi
indicated that 13 samples of raisins uere contaminated uith
toxigenic fungi.The relation of moisture content to microbial count and
toxin contamination indicated that with increase in moisture
content,; the total microbial count of fungi and bacteria also
increases. As microbial count increases, the total sugars and
reducing sugars decreases. However, nitrogen, acidity and ash
increases.
