Analysis and quantification of naturally occurring aflatoxin B1 in dry fruits with subsequent physical and biological detoxification.

Current research involves extraction, identification and detoxification of mycotoxins from ten dry fruit samples. Mycotoxins were identified by high performance thin layer chromatography followed by physical and biological detoxification, analysed by HPLC. Three fungal species were observed after isolation including, and HP-TLC analysis revealed the presence of mycotoxin, aflatoxin B1 ranging from 0.
