CLEANING UP AFTER A PENICILLIUM CONTAM

8 1/2 PINT CAKES AND ONE 2 PINT CASING; ALL CAKES PROBABLY BIRTHED TOO EARLY AND WERE CONT'ED W/ PENICILLIUM. EACH CAKE WAS CONT'ED AND THROWN OUT. MY CASING HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO JUDGE, HOWEVER. I CAN SEE NOTHING ON THE SURFACE OR SIDES. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT FULL COLONIZATION AND CASING MATERIALS PROTECTED THE CASING FROM CONTAM? I UNDERSTAND THAT PENICILLIUM RELEASES AIR-BORNE SPORES WHICH CAN ALSO BE MYCOTOXINS. THAT'S THE CONTEXT HERE'S THE QUESTION: if i need to inoculate a second "batch," then how would i proceed with cleaning the place? I have a hepa running is it realistic, or would i )))))HAVE))))) TO inoculate at a remote loc. (slightly possible, but patience is not one of my virtues

A little off topic... I am allergic to Penicillin. Is penicillin always going to show up on the cake/product, or can the mushroom look ok but still be infected?

If controlled at early stages it won't be a problem, the mushrooms will be ok. The contrary (not controlling the contamination) will result in possibly infected mushrooms, even if they look ok.
Don't risk it !

heineken: it is my understanding that penicillin is simply a refined product of one of the many types of penicillium molds
