UncommonoccurrenceratiosofaflatoxinB1, B2,G1,andG2inmaizeandgroundnutsfrom Malawi

In ondary metabolites that are produced mainly by certain strains 47 % of the samples, the concentration of AFG1 was higher of the Aspergillus genus on a wide range of matrices. [...] 2011; Van Egmond and Jonker 2004), but all agree that AFB1 concentration generally exceeds half of the sum of the aflatoxins and that AFB2 and AFG2 occur in the lowest concentrations. [...] in the zone as at all times, the majority of the samples Aflatoxin data were not normally distributed and were that were tested were collected from the mid-elevation log-transformed for statistical analysis (log AFB1+1, log which is the main maize and groundnuts-producing area AFG1+1). [...] 4 Relative contribution of aflatoxin B1, aflatoxin B2, aflatoxin G1, and aflatoxin G2 to the total aflatoxin content in raw maize and groundnut samples from Malawi. [...] (2008) found metabolites of stored maize (Zeamays, L.) from five agro-ecological the concentration of the AFB1 and AFG1 to be 50/50, and zones of Nigeria.
