Occurrence of total aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2) in commercial peanut and peanut butter from the Saudi market in the period from 2015 to 2020 [PDF]
Nut products are susceptible to contamination with mycotoxin, especially aflatoxins, which results of mold growth during harvest or storage. This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of aflatoxins in peanut products from the Saudi market.

Aflatoxins: History, Significant Milestones, Recent Data on Their Toxicity and Ways to Mitigation
In the early 1960s the discovery of aflatoxins began when a total of 100,000 turkey poults died by hitherto unknown turkey “X” disease in England. The disease was associated with Brazilian groundnut meal affected by Aspergillus flavus.
