Aflatoxins are highly toxic carcinogens that contaminate crops worldwide. Previous studies conducted inNigeria and Ghana found high concentrations of aflatoxins in pre- and post-harvest maize. However,little information is available on the population structure of Aspergillus Sect. Flavi in West A...

In this study an LC-MS/MS multitoxin method covering a total of 247 fungal and bacterial metabolites was applied to the analysis of different foods and feedstuffs from Burkina Faso and Mozambique. Overall, 63 metabolites were determined in 122 samples of mainly maize and groundnuts and a few samp...

Aflatoxin contamination resulting from maize infection by Aspergillus flavus is both an economic and a public
health concern. Therefore, strategies for controlling aflatoxin contamination in maize are being investigated. The
abilities of eleven naturally occurring atoxigenic isolates in Nigeria t...
