Impact of storage conditions on the shelf life of aflatoxin biocontrol products containing atoxigenic isolates of as active ingredient applied in various countries in Africa.

Aflatoxin contamination significantly threatens food safety and security, particularly in tropical and sub-tropical regions where staple crops such as maize, groundnut, and sorghum become frequently affected. This contamination is primarily caused by the fungus . The contamination causes adverse health effects, reduced income, and trade restrictions.

Can it be all more simple? Manufacturing aflatoxin biocontrol products using dry spores of atoxigenic isolates of Aspergillus flavus as active ingredients.

Aflatoxin contamination of staple crops, commonly occurring in warm areas, negatively impacts human and animal health, and hampers trade and economic development. The fungus Aspergillus flavus is the major aflatoxin producer. However, not all A.

Performance of Broilers Fed with Maize Colonized by Either Toxigenic or Atoxigenic Strains of with and without an Aflatoxin-Sequestering Agent.

In warm agricultural areas across the globe, maize, groundnut, and other crops become frequently contaminated with aflatoxins produced primarily by the fungus . Crop contamination with those highly toxic and carcinogenic compounds impacts both human and animal health, as well as the income of farmers and trade. In Nigeria, poultry productivity is hindered by high prevalence of aflatoxins in feeds.
