Inhibition of Aflatoxin Synthesis in Aspergillus flavus by Three Structurally Modified Lentinans

The chemical properties of β-glucans leading to their inhibition on aflatoxin (AF) production by Aspergillus flavus remain unclear. In this study, structurally modified lentinan derivatives were prepared by carboxymethylation, sulfation, and phosphorylation to explore their inhibition activity to AF...
