Abstract

Low-molecular weight volatile metabolites produced by Penicillium farinosum, P. citrinum, P. camemberti and P. chrysogenum were investigated. During first 40 days of cultivation the fungi produced mainly C-8 compounds, and later mainly 2-hexenal was synthesized. Addition of 0.1% linoleic acid significantly stimulated the secretion of volatile metabolites. P. citrinum and P. farenosum produced large quantities of geosmin.
