Occurrence and distribution of aflatoxin contamination in groundnuts (Arachis hypogaea L) and population density of Aflatoxigenic Aspergilli in Malawi
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is susceptible to pre-and post-harvest infections by
Aspergillus spp. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), is the contaminant produced by the fungus in infected
grains posing a threat to human and animal health. This paper reports of a study undertaken
in Malawi to determine the occurrence and distribution of Aflatoxigenic Aspergilli in the soil
and AFB1 contamination in groundnuts. A total of 1397 groundnut samples collected from
farm homesteads, local markets, warehouses and shops in 2008 and 2009 were analyzed …
