Aflatoxins are a class of carcinogenic mycotoxins produced by Aspergillus fungi, which are
widely distributed in nature. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is the most toxic of these compounds and its …

Human exposure to mycotoxins occurs mostly through dietary intake, although exposure
through dermal and inhalation routes has also been shown. Depending on the type of …

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a stable toxic metabolite threatening health of human and animal and

This manuscript reviews the state-of-the-art regarding human biological monitoring (HBM) of
mycotoxins in plasma, serum and blood samples. After a comprehensive and systematic …

This study was conducted to investigate mycotoxin exposure in 260 rural residents (age 18–
