A Review: Sample Preparation and Chromatographic Technologies for Detection of Aflatoxins in Foods
As a class of mycotoxins with regulatory and public health significance, aflatoxins (e.g., aflatoxin B1, B2, G1 and G2) have attracted unparalleled attention from government, academia and industry due to their chronic and acute toxicity.

Extraction aflatoxins from cereals using agerogel @ COF composite and evaluating ultraviolet and microwave irradiation and sonication effect on their decontamination [PDF]
A dispersive solid-phase extraction method was proposed for the extraction of aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, and G2) from cereal samples. A covalent-organic framework and graphene aerogel composite were evaluated for their capacity to extract and preconcentrate

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.
