Screening of Aspergillus glaucus group (genus of Eurotium ) for the isolation of synergists for tocopherol (Toe) was carried out by growing molds in malt medium with sodium chloride. The respective acetone and ethyl acetate extracts from mycelial mats and culture broth of Eurotium species were used to estimate their synergism with Toe in lard. Especially, the extracts of E. chevalieri IFO 5233, IFO 6272 and E. repens IFO 4885 contributed to inhibiting the autoxidation of lard.
