Study of aflatoxin M1 level in the collected raw cow milk from milk collection centers in Tabriz [PDF]

Bihdāsht-i Mavādd-i Ghaz̠āyī, 2013
Aflatoxins are a group of mycotoxins mainly produced by common fungi Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus and A. nomius. Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is the major metabolite of aflatoxin B1. AFM1 is also known to be hepatotoxic and carcinogenic. The purpose of this

Količina aflatoksina u hrani za mliječne krave i pojavnost AFM1 u mlijeku

Krmiva : časopis o hranidbi životinja, proizvodnji i tehnologiji krme, 2014
Mikotoksini predstavljaju značajan problem kao kontaminanti hrane za životinje i ljude. Stoga je nužno njihovo praćenje u hrani na višegodišnjoj razini, jer na njihovu pojavu prvenstveno utječu vremenske prilike i tehnologija primarne proizvodnje koju treba prilagoditi svakoj pojedinačnoj situaciji. U 2013.
