Figure 3.

Kinetics of (a) fungal biomass and ochratoxin A (OTA) accumulated in (b) mycelia and in (c) supernatants of Penicillium verrucosum broths supplemented with 0.5 mM ferulic acid (FER) (black) and p-coumaric acid (COUM) (gray) or in non-supplemented control (white). Differences between control and tested phenolic acids in terms of OTA were determined separately for each day with multiple comparisons tests using the Dunn–Sidak method. Different letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05). Values are expressed as means ± standard deviation using five biological replicates.
