Penicillium roqueforti is a common saprotrophic fungus in the genus Penicillium.Widespread in nature, it can be isolated from soil, decaying organic matter, and plants. The major industrial use of this fungus is the production of blue cheeses, flavouring agents, antifungals, polysaccharides, proteases, and other enzymes.

Penicillium roqueforti is the cause of the blue veins in Roquefort cheese. In addition to Penicillium roqueforti, various yeasts are present, namely Debaryomyces hansenii and its non-sporulating form Candida famata, and Kluyveromyces lactis and its non-sporulating form Candida sphaerica. [35]
A type called penicillium roqueforti is used to make blue cheeses like roquefort, gorgonzola and stilton, the experts note. Penicillium camemberti is used to make camembert and brie cheese, which ...
Penicillium camemberti and Penicillium roqueforti are the molds on Camembert, Brie, Roquefort, and many other cheeses. Penicillium nalgiovense is used in soft mold-ripened cheeses, such as Nalžovy (ellischau) cheese, and to improve the taste of sausages and hams, and to prevent colonization by other molds and bacteria.
Penicillin Roquefort toxin (PR toxin) is a mycotoxin produced by the fungus Penicillium roqueforti.In 1973, PR toxin was first partially characterized by isolating moldy corn on which the fungi had grown. [1]
Roquefortine C is a mycotoxin that belongs to a class of naturally occurring 2,5-diketopiperazines [1] produced by various fungi, particularly species from the genus Penicillium. [2] It was first isolated from a strain of Penicillium roqueforti , a species commercially used as a source of proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes during maturation of ...
The substance was first isolated from Penicillium roqueforti, a fungus used to make blue cheeses like Roquefort, Danish Blue, Stilton cheese and gorgonzola. Aristolochene is a precursor to PR toxin, a toxic chemical made in large amounts by Penicillium roqueforti. [2]
