| Abstract | Dominant halotolerant fungi isolated from salted dried fish at Visakhapatnam coast were found to be Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus and Penicillium sp. Sensitivity test to different preservative showed that Penicillium sp. was most sensitive to proprionic acid and sodium benzonate; but A. flavus was most sensitive to potassium sorbate. Propionic acid (0.06%) or potassium sorbate (0.02%) or sodium benzonate (0.04%) were adequate to inhibit all the three dominant halotolerant fungi. |
