Table 1.

Aflatoxin (AF) concentration (B1, B2, G1, and G2) in Czapek Yeast Autolysate Agar (CYA) plates supplemented with different concentrations (0, 10, 100, 500, and 1000 µg/mL) of essential oils (EOs) (R. officinalis, T. vulgaris, S. montana, O. virens, O. majoricum, and O. vulgare). Each value is the mean of three replications ± standard error. Groups with the same letter are not significantly different (p > 0.05). ND: non detected.
