Rapid Degradation of Aflatoxins by Treatment With Vacuum Ultraviolet Radiation Arising From Hydrogen Plasma

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
Intense VUV radiation ranging from 140 to 160 nm emitted by low‐pressure hydrogen radiofrequency plasma effectively decomposes a mixture of B1, G1, B2, and G2 aflatoxins on quartz glass substrates. Artificially contaminated maize grains with the same aflatoxin mixture resulted in 80% toxin removal in under 1 min. ABSTRACT A rapid, nonthermal method for

A novel electrochemical aptasensor based on layer-by-layer assembly of DNA-Au@Ag conjugates for rapid detection of aflatoxin M1 in milk samples

Journal of Dairy Science, 2022
: Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is a common toxin in dairy products that causes acute and chronic human health disorders. Thus, the development of a rapid and accurate AFM1 detection method is of vital importance for food safety monitoring.

Quantitative Analysis of Total Aflatoxins in Dairy Cattle Feed Using a Competitive Lateral Flow Immunoassay: A Regional Study in Tigray, Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Quantitative analysis of total aflatoxins in dairy cattle feed across five urban centres in Tigray, Ethiopia, revealed that 22.4% of samples exceeded national limits and 29.1% surpassed EU thresholds. Higher contamination levels were associated with roughage‐based feed, poor storage conditions and the presence of toxigenic Aspergillus flavus and A ...

Prevalences of aflatoxin (AFM1) in raw milk: A review

BIO Web of Conferences
Dairy and dairy products are particularly susceptible to AFM1 contamination, which is thought to pose a number of health risks to consumers. As a result, dairy and dairy products have the most clearly shown potential for the human diet to contain aflatoxin residues.

Aflatoxin M1 Levels in Commercial Cows’ Milk in Mexico: Contamination and Carcinogenic Risk Assessment

Applied Sciences
Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), a toxic metabolite of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), is commonly found in cow’s milk (CM) when dairy cattle consume contaminated feed. Chronic exposure to AFM1 poses serious health risks, particularly for children. This study aimed to quantify

Transcriptomics and flow cytometry reveals the cytotoxicity of aflatoxin B1 and aflatoxin M1 in bovine mammary epithelial cells

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Aflatoxin is a known mycotoxin that pollutes various grains widely in the environment. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) have been shown to induce cytotoxicity in many cells, yet their effects on mammary epithelial cells remain unclear. In this

Simultaneous Determination of AFB1 and AFM1 in Milk Samples by Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Quadrupole Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry

Beverages, 2018
Milk is the world’s most consumed beverage, not counting water. Even though investigations on milk aflatoxin (AF) M1 contamination are regularly conducted, there is limited information on the contamination of milk with its parent compound, AFB1.

Early Childhood Dietary Exposure of Aflatoxins and Fumonisins in Tanzania: Role in Child Stunting and Possible Interventions (2003–2024)

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Childhood stunting is a major public health concern, and dietary exposure to aflatoxins and fumonisins during early life is associated with child stunting in Tanzania. The causal link between aflatoxin and/or fumonisin exposure and child stunting has been less well explained.
