Maize samples were collected during a survey in three agro-ecological zones in Nigeria to determine the distribution and aflatoxin-producing potential of members of Aspergillus section Flavi. The three agro-ecological zones were, Derived Savannah (DS) and Southern Guinea Savannah (SGS) in the hum...


Atehnkeng, J.Ojiambo, P.Donner, M.Ikotun, T.Sikora, R.A.Cotty, P.Bandyopadhyay, Ranajit[Distribution and toxigenicity of Aspergillus species isolated from maize kernels from three agroecological zones in Nigeria]Distribution and toxigenicity of Aspergillus species isolated from maize kernels from three agroecological zones in Nigeria
Oluwafemi, F.Bandyopadhyay, RanajitKumar, M.Ogunbanwo, T.Ayanwnd, B.[Biological detoxification of aflatoxin B1 in traditionallyfermented maize Ogi]Biological detoxification of aflatoxin B1 in traditionallyfermented maize Ogi

Aflatoxin is a potent mycotoxin that can cause cancer, stunted growth, and (in extreme instances) rapid death. Aflatoxin can contaminate many staple crops, including maize and groundnuts. As many as 4.5 billion people in the developing world may be chronically exposed. Scientists at the United St...


Johnson, A.M.Abdoulaye, TahirouAyedun, B.Fulton, J.R.Widmar, N.J.O.Akande, A.Bandyopadhyay, RanajitManyong, Victor M.[A survey of aflatoxin and aflasafe awareness and management among Nigerian poultry producers and feed millers]A survey of aflatoxin and aflasafe awareness and management among Nigerian poultry producers and feed millers

Aflatoxin M1 (AF M1), a hydroxylated metabolite of AF B1, is an important toxin that can contaminate themilk of lactating mothers. A correlation study was conducted to determine the relationship between AFM1 content of breast milk, dietary exposure to AF B1 and socioeconomic status of lactating m...


Adejumo, O.Atanda, O.Raiola, A.Somorin, Y.Bandyopadhyay, RanajitRitieni, A.[Correlation between aflatoxin M1 content of breast milk, dietary exposure to aflatoxin B1 and socioeconomic status of lactating mothers in Ogun State, Nigeria]Correlation between aflatoxin M1 content of breast milk, dietary exposure to aflatoxin B1 and socioeconomic status of lactating mothers in Ogun State, Nigeria

The distribution and aflatoxigenicity of Aspergillus section Flavi isolates in 58 commercial poultry feed samplesobtained from 17 states in five agro-ecological zones (AEZs) in Nigeria were determined in order to assess thesafety of the feedswith respect to aflatoxin-producing fungi. Correlation ...


Ezekiel, C.N.Atehnkeng, J.Odebode, A.C.Bandyopadhyay, Ranajit[Distribution of aflatoxigenic Aspergillus section Flavi in commercial poultry feed in Nigeria]Distribution of aflatoxigenic Aspergillus section Flavi in commercial poultry feed in Nigeria

Aflatoxins are highly toxic metabolites of several Aspergillus species widely distributed throughout the environment. These toxins have adverse effects on humans and livestock at a few micrograms per kilogram (μg/kg) concentrations. Strict regulations on the concentrations of aflatoxins allowed i...


Mutegi, C.Cotty, P.J.Bandyopadhyay, Ranajit[Prevalence and mitigation of aflatoxins in Kenya (1960-to date)]Prevalence and mitigation of aflatoxins in Kenya (1960-to date)

Aflatoxin is a potent mycotoxin that can cause cancer and death and is associated with stunted growth. Prevalence of aflatoxin is widespread in Africa negatively impacting health and trade. Aflasafe is a biological control product that can be applied to maize or groundnut fields to reduce aflatox...


Johnson, A.M.Fulton, J.R.Abdoulaye, TahirouAyedun, B.Widmar, N.J.O.Akande, A.Bandyopadhyay, RanajitManyong, Victor M.[Aflatoxin awareness and Aflasafe adoption potential of Nigerian smallholder maize farmers]Aflatoxin awareness and Aflasafe adoption potential of Nigerian smallholder maize farmers

In Nigeria, Aflasafe is a registered biological product for reducing aflatoxin infestation of crops from the field to storage, making the crops safer for consumption. The important questions are whether farmers will purchase and apply this product to reduce aflatoxin contamination of crops, and i...


Ayedun, B.Okpachu, G.Manyong, Victor M.Atehnkeng, J.Akinola, Adebayo A.Abu, G.A.Bandyopadhyay, RanajitAbdoulaye, Tahirou[An assessment of willingness to pay by maize and groundnut farmers for aflatoxin biocontrol product in northern Nigeria]An assessment of willingness to pay by maize and groundnut farmers for aflatoxin biocontrol product in northern Nigeria

Aspergillus flavus has long been considered to be an asexual species. Although a sexual stage was recently reported for this species from in vitro studies, the amount of recombination ongoing in natural populations and the genetic distance across which meiosis occurs is largely unknown. In the cu...
