Fungi which can be found in grain and products of their processing have an effect on their quality. Fourty eight samples of flours were examined for ergosterol concentration, which is a chemical measure of fungal growth. The paper reviews studies carried out recently on the occurrence of ergosterol - content ranged from 0.10 to 0.55 ug/g. The level of ERG in flours examined in this study is low, that means very weak development of fungal biomass
