Aflatoxicol and Aflatoxins B1 and M1 in the Tissues of Pigs Receiving Aflatoxin
Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1982 Abstract Aflatoxicol (AFL) and aflatoxins B1 and M1 were found in tissues (kidney, liver, and muscle) of feeder pigs given an estimated LD50 oral dose of B1 (1.0 mg/kg body weight) provided as a rice culture of Aspergillus flavus and of market-weight pigs fed a naturally contaminated feed, containing aflatoxin Bi at a level of 400 ng/g ...

A qPCR aptasensor for sensitive detection of aflatoxin M1 [PDF]
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2016 Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), one of the most toxic mycotoxins, imposes serious health hazards. AFM1 had previously been classified as a group 2B carcinogen [1] and has been classified as a group 1 carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization (WHO) [2].
