BMJ, 1989 Sur 13 echantillons d'heroine saisis provenant de pays tropicaux, 4 contiennent de l'aflatoxine B 1 . Des aflatoxines sont decelees dans l'urine de 27 toxicomanes sur 133. L'attention est attiree sur ce nouveau risque d'infection (hepatite, sida) chez les toxicomanes utilisant des injections intra-veineuses, l'aflatoxines ayant des proprietes ...

Data_Sheet_4_Quantitative Proteomic Analysis for High- and Low-Aflatoxin-Yield Aspergillus flavus Strains Isolated From Natural Environments.docx [PDF]
, 2021 The molecular mechanisms underlying aflatoxin production have been well-studied in strains of the fungus Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) under artificial conditions. However, aflatoxin biosynthesis has rarely been studied in A.

Postweaning exposure to aflatoxin results in impaired child growth: A longitudinal study in Benin, west Africa [PDF]
, 2004 Aflatoxins are dietary contaminants that are hepatocarcinogenic and immunotoxic and cause growth retardation in animals, but there is little evidence concerning the latter two parameters in exposed human populations.

Estimating the risk of aflatoxin-induced liver cancer in Tanzania based on biomarker data.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Evidence about the magnitude of the aflatoxin menace can help policy makers appreciate the importance of the problem and strengthen policies to support aflatoxin mitigation measures. In this study, we estimated aflatoxin-induced liver cancer risk in 2016

The production of aflatoxin B1 or G1 by Aspergillus parasiticus at various combinations of temperature and water activity is related to the ratio of aflS to aflR expression [PDF]
, 2010 The influence of varying combinations of wateractivity (aw) and temperature on growth, aflatoxin biosynthesisand aflR/aflS expression of Aspergillus parasiticuswas analysed in the ranges 17-42°C and 0.90-0.99 aw.Optimum growth was at 35°C.
