Aflatoxin is secreted in oilseeds in general, such as peanuts, cotton, almonds, maize, etc. by four types of aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus, A. tamari, A. nomius, Afr1) Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus, commonly known as Aspergillus flavus group, is the most important and widespread and is secreted in the pre-harvest phase and continues under poor storage conditions and during shipment for export. The moisture content of the seed is more than 12% and the relative humidity is 85% and the temperature from 30 to 535 m is the most suitable conditions for excretion.
Aflatoxin is one of the most important fungal toxins because of its harmful effects on human and animal health. The world was known for aflatoxin in the early 1960s after an estimated 100,000 turkeys died in England after feeding on aflatoxin-contaminated peanuts. Since then, 18 species of aflatoxin have been detected, four of which are B1, B2, G1 and G2, the most dangerous and most common are B1, which has been called aflatoxin relative to the most important fungus, Aspergillus flavus, where A is the first letter of sex
And fla are the first letters of the type and Toxin is a poison, but the characters of the species is depending on their spectral reflections when exposed to the UV
Where the blue color takes B, which gives the green color, G takes the most dangerous of them at all is B1. There are also types that produce aflatoxin in the body of the animal and are present inside the milk and represent a high risk especially for children such as M1 and M.
For the risk of aflatoxin, countries have been concerned with establishing regulations and laws governing the import process to ensure the healthy and healthy product of its citizens
There are more than 100 countries in the world from 1963 until the last report of the World Health Organization in this regard, which was issued in 2003 organized the mechanism for the entry of food and agricultural crops to the markets to be safe from any contamination with Aflatoxinovi Africa only fifteen countries are Which enact laws governing the entry of agricultural crops and food products to ensure that they are safe from aflatoxin, including Egypt. The total population benefiting from these laws in Africa for the world is only 8.2%.
As for the health effects on human and animal, we find that the human body enter aflatoxin either directly by feeding on contaminated crops or food products or indirectly by feeding animal products from animals
Have been fed on feed contaminated with fungal toxins and the indirect route is the most dangerous, especially for children.
