Background Conventional strategies for mycotoxin reduction includes both prevention and
decontamination strategies. Decontamination of aflatoxin has been a continuing challenge …

Aflatoxins are toxic secondary metabolites mainly produced by Aspergillus fungi, posing
high carcinogenic potency in humans and animals. Dietary exposure to aflatoxins is a global …

With 744 million metric tons produced in 2017/2018, bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) and
durum wheat (Triticum durum) are the second most widely produced cereal on a global …

Aflatoxins (AFs) contamination is prevalent in foods around the world. Many studies have
been performed to recover foods contaminated with unacceptable levels of AFs. This review …

The effects of gaseous ozone (O 3), UV-C radiation, and citric acid (CA) on aflatoxins
degradation in contaminated pistachio samples were investigated. By the evaluation of …

Nuts are widely consumed worldwide, mainly due to their characteristic flavor and texture,
ease of consumption, and their functional properties. In addition, consumers increasingly …

This study investigates the reduction of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in skim milk by using ultraviolet
light at 254 nm and the effects of influencing factors on the efficacy including treatment time …

The present study aimed to investigate the reduction of aflatoxins as a potent hazard for
human health in nuts during roasting, irradiation, and fumigation processes. A systematic …

Many studies have demonstrated that UV radiation can degrade aflatoxins (AF) in
contaminated foods. However, the effective wavelength ranges for AF decomposition and …

This study investigated the effectiveness of the ultraviolet irradiation of the C region (UV–C)
for the decontamination of Aspergillus flavus and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) on artificially …
