Bioimprinting as a tool for the detection of aflatoxin B1 using a capacitive biosensor

Biotechnology Reports, 2016
A strategy for the detection of aflatoxin B1 using a capacitive biosensor has been studied. The use of proteins for the generation of sites with high specificity against aflatoxin B1 are produced via bioimprinting.

Controlling aflatoxin in maize: The effects of varieties, packaging materials, and agroecological zones

Heliyon, 2023
Contamination of crops by aflatoxin is rampant in warm regions worldwide, including Sub-Sahara Africa. Contamination of maize and other foodstuffs with aflatoxin seriously threatens the health of humans and animals. The experimental design used was 2 × 2

Assessing the combined toxicity of the natural toxins, aflatoxin B₁, fumonisin B₁ and microcystin-LR by high content analysis [PDF]

, 2018
As human co-exposure to natural toxins through food and water is inevitable, risk assessments to safeguard health are necessary. Aflatoxin B1 and fumonisin B1, frequent co-contaminants of maize and microcystin-LR, produced in freshwater by cyanobacteria ...

Negligible effects of tryptophan on the aflatoxin adsorption of sodium bentonite [PDF]

, 2014
The main objective of this study was to determine if the competitive adsorption of tryptophan (Trp) and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) could potentially affect the ability of a sodium bentonite (NaB) to prevent aflatoxicosis in monogastric animals.

Aflatoxin B1 Hemiacetal

Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1968
Abstract The acid-catalyzed addition of water to the vinyl ether double bond of aflatoxin Bx was investigated. The hemiacetal produced was biologically inactive to the chick embryo and to tissue cultures at respective concentrations 80 and 50 times the minimum lethal dose of aflatoxin B1 The structure of the hemiacetal was established ...

Quantitation of aflatoxin B1 and aflatoxin B1 antibody by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent microassay [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1980
A specific microtest plate enzyme immunoassay has been developed for the rapid quantitation of aflatoxin B1 at levels as low as 25 pg per assay. Multiple-site injection of rabbits with an aflatoxin B1 carboxymethyloxime-bovine serum albumin conjugate was used for the production of hyperimmune sera. Dilutions of the purified antibody were air dried onto
