DOI: 10.1016/j.foodcont.2019.04.035
Abstract: Abstract Aflatoxins are carcinogenic secondary metabolites produced mainly by two species of Aspergillus fungi, (A. flavus and A. parasiticus). The toxin contaminates maize grains during the developmental stage as well as in storage. Grains with… read more here.
