Effect of Magnetic Field Energy on the Growth and Aflatoxin Production by Aspergillus flavus

The study was conducted to conclude the effect of the magnetic field poles on aflatoxins produced by toxogenic Aspergillus flavus.  The fungus had been exposed to the northern pole, southern pole; both poles and their influences were compared with the control at which the fungus is not affected by magnetic field energy.
