In the present study, high titred polyclonal antibodies were produced against synthetic AFB1-lys and developed a simple indirect competitive (IC)-ELISA for quantitative estimation of AFB1-lys adducts in human serum albumin. IC-ELISA was validated by testing 250 blood samples that include 85 HBV p...

Aflatoxin B1 is a carcinogen produced by Aspergillus flavus and a few related fungi that are often presentin many food substances. It interacts synergistically with Hepatitis B or C virus (HBV, HBC) infection,thereby increasing the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The G to T transversion a...
