Development of immunosensors for mycotoxins analysis [PDF]
Aflatoxin B₁ (AFB₁) and fumonisins (Fms) are mycotoxin contaminants found in peanuts and corn, respectively, and are known to be immunosuppressive and carcinogenic compounds.

Molecular ecology of aspergillus section flavi species : approaches to understand the role of aflatoxin genes in aflatoxin biosynthesis [PDF]
This is the first study to integrate and correlate the effect of ecophysiological factors on the life cycle of Aspergillus flavus by carrying out complementary work on gene expression of the aflatoxin gene cluster, with growth, sporulation and ...

Determination of aflatoxin M1 in milk samples of Zanjan, Gilan, East Azerbaijan and Kermanshah provinces by ELASA method [PDF]
Background: Aflatoxin M1 is one of mycotoxins which is produced by metabolism of Aflatoxin B1 and enters to the human body through animal milk. It has very strong hepatotoxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic effects and is potentially dangerous for human ...

Investigating the Presence of Aflatoxin M1 and Microbial Contamination in Raw, Traditional, and Pasteurized Milk Produced in Qom City, Iran, in 2022 [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Aflatoxins are toxic fungal metabolites found in foods. After eating foods containing aflatoxin B1, the ruminants metabolize the toxin and excrete aflatoxin M1 in their milk.

Determination of aflatoxin M1 in breast milk and related factors. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Breastfeeding in women with aflatoxin M1 exposure may be a risk factor for the newborn. Thus, it is crucial to determine aflatoxin M1 levels in breast milk and raise mothers’ awareness about nutrition in lactation and other periods. This study

Detection Methods for Aflatoxin M1 in Dairy Products [PDF]
Mycotoxins are toxic compounds produced mainly by fungi of the genera Aspergillus, Fusarium and Penicillium. In the food chain, the original mycotoxin may be transformed in other toxic compounds, reaching the consumer. A good example is the occurrence of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in dairy products, which is due to the presence of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in the ...

Determining the aflatoxin M1 levels in breast milk.
Mycotoxins are different toxic substances at relatively smaller molecular weight produced by some types of fungi. Aflatoxin is the most common type of mycotoxin easily reproducing in food stored for a long time in unsuitable conditions. This study determined the aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) levels in breast milk samples collected from mothers who gave birth in ...

Development of an electrochemical immunosensor for aflatoxin M1 in milk with focus on matrix interference. [PDF]
A simple sensor method was developed for aflatoxin M1 analysis to be applied directly with milk by using antibody modified screen-printed carbon working electrode with carbon counter and silver–silver chloride pseudo-reference electrode. A competitive

Postweaning exposure to aflatoxin results in impaired child growth: A longitudinal study in Benin, west Africa [PDF]
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.

Determination of Aflatoxins B1 and M1 in Milk
Abstract Cows fed contaminated rations containing the mold metabolite aflatoxin B 1 secrete low levels of aflatoxin B 1 and its metabolite aflatoxin M 1 in milk. To establish the relationship between ingested aflatoxin and milk-secreted aflatoxin, a sensitive method is needed to determine aflatoxins B 1 and M 1 in milk.
