Tulum cheese was divided into 2 equal parts. One part was inoculated with 104 spores/g of aflatoxin-producing Aspergillus parasiticus NRRL 2999 strain. The other part, the control group, was not inoculated. All the samples were ripened in glassjars at 2 different temperatures (10 +/- 1 and 20 +/- 1 degreesC) and relative humidities (85 +/- 2% and 95 +/- 2%) and analyzed for aflatoxin formation on days 1, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 of storage using thin layer chromatography.
