aflatoxin m1 (afm1) is an important mycotoxin frequently found in milk and dairy products. dairy products and colostrum may be contaminated by aflatoxin m1 when dairy cattle have fed with aflatoxin b1-contaminated feeds. this study was undertaken in a dairy farm around tehran province to determine the presence and level of aflatoxin m1 (afm1) in spray dried and lyophilized colostrum samples. in...

use of raw milk and dairy products containing aflatoxin m1 (afm1) has led to concern inconsumers. the present study determined the afm1 in raw cow's milk in qazvinprovince. in this research, 170 raw cow's milk were collected from dairy farm, dairyfactories, milk collection centers, and milk supply centers in qazvin province during coldseasons in 2013, and all samples were examined for afm1. the...

background: aflatoxin m 1 (afm 1 ) is the metabolite of aflatoxin b1 (afb 1 ) and is found in milk when lactating animals are fed with contaminated feedstuff.  the presence of afm 1 in milk, pose a major risk for humans especially kids as it can have immunosuppressive, mutagenic, teratogenic and carcinogenic effects. the present study is aimed to investigate the oc­currence of afm 1 in subsidiz...

background: the presence of aflatoxin m1 (afm1) andantibiotic residues in milk and milk products is a public healthconcern. milk and milk powder have the potential forintroducing afm1 and antibiotic into human diet. in recentyears, milk powder has been used on a large scale in dairyfactories. consequently, antibiotic residues and aflatoxincontamination control in these products has gained impor...

Introduction: Contamination of foodstuffs with fungi and the toxins produced by them is a very important problem in human and animal feeding. In most villages around Shiraz, in small-scale dairy farms, dry leftover bread which is mostly contaminated with fungi is used as a part of food ration for animals. The thin-layer chromatographic method which was used for determination of aflatoxin. Inges...

In the present study, a longitudinal assessment was carried out to evaluate the short-term human exposure to aflatoxins in Pirassununga region, São Paulo, Brazil, by determination of urinary aflatoxins by a liquid chromatography coupled to mass sprectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method. Sixteen volunteers with ages ranging from 14 to 55 years old were instructed to collect the early morning first urine...

This study was carried out to detect the presence of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in 30 UHT flavored milk samples in Karaj, Alborz province of Iran. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was applied to analyse AFM1 in the samples. Result showed that aflatoxin M1 was detected in all the UHT flavored milk samples, the concentration of AFM1 was ranged from 0.015 to 0.14 µg/kg. Also, 10 samples (33....

Three hundred and ninety-three samples of dairy products (124 samples of white cheese, 61 samples of cream cheese, 76 samples of Kashar cheese, and 132 samples of butter), 91 samples of cashew nut and 97 macademia nut marketed in Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia during September 2010-September 2011, were analyzed for aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), total aflatoxin and AFB1 by microtitre plate enzyme linked ...
