About Penicillium Glaucum


Penicillium glaucum is a mold that is used in the making of some types of blue cheese, including Bleu de Gex, Rochebaron, and some varieties of Bleu d'Auvergne and Gorgonzola. In 1874, Sir William Roberts, a physician from Manchester, noted that cultures of the mold did not display bacterial contamination.
