Abstract

Aflatoxins are fungal toxins, which may be found in food and due to negative health effects, they are of major concerns for human health and food industries. Aflatoxin M1 contamination in dairy products in Arak, Iran, 2013 was evaluated using ELISA method. Sample groups were comprised of 111 samples, including pasteurized milk (n=56), raw milk (n=16) and cheese (n=39), and were analyzed for AfM1 content. The results showed that 93.7% of the samples were positive with the total average concentration of 85.8-μg/L in milk and 30.39-μg/kg in cheese. Moreover, AfM1 of 94.4% of milk samples and 92.3% of cheese samples was above the standards of Iran and EU. © 2015 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc. All rights reserved.
