This present research work has been designed to evaluate medicinal plant moringa oleifera leaves against A. flavus and A. parasitiucus, to minimize the fungus growth and aflatoxin production in spice sample during storage. Biological procedures have been used so far for controlling aflatoxins in the spice samples. The spice sample was inoculated with A. flavus and A. parasitiucus were stabilized with M. oleifera and stored at specific moisture (16%) and temperature (28°C) conditions for 8 months. The aflatoxins significantly increase during incubation period (p<0.05) and also increased by inoculation with both fungal strains in both spice samples. The contaminated spices the antifungal agents (Moringa oleifera leaves) were added to control the aflatoxins production and to investigate their efficiency. After regular intervals, samples were drawn and levels of aflatoxins were estimated by HPLC. The investigated medicinal plants M. oleifera extract were found to be more effective as they fully inhibited (100%) aflatoxin production throughout the entire storage period. Overall results of the present study showed that M. oleifera can be used effectively to make agents to control aflatoxin production in spice sample. It was observed that Moringa oleifera at all steps to retard aflatoxin production for eight months were found to be very excellent (p<0.05) potential agents.
