The presence of moulds, potential producers of sterigmatocystin, was investigated in 20 samples of spices (cinnamon, caraway, marjoram and clove). The following five species were isolated from the samples: Aspergillus versicolor, Aspergillus sydowii, Aspergillus ustus, Emericella nidulans and Eurotium herbariorum. E. herbariorum was present in all investigated spice samples, accounting for 7.6% of total mycopopulation in caraway and 42.9% in cloves. A. versicolor was detected in cinnamon, caraway and marjoram, accounting for 0.4% of total mycopopulation in caraway and 1.5% in cinnamon; A. ustus accounting for 0.1% of total mycopopulation in caraway and 0.4% in marjoram, while A. sydowii accounted for 18.9% of total mycopopulation in marjoram and 7.1% in clove. E. nidulans was a contaminant of caraway (0.01%) and marjoram (0.4%).
