Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the ability of selected dairy strains of lactic acid bacteria to remove aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1) from liquid media. Both Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain GG (LBGG) and L. rhamnosus strain LC-705 (LC705) can significantly ( P>0.05) remove AFB 1 when compared with that by other strains of either Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria. Removal of AFB 1 by LBGG and LC705 was a rapid process with approximately 80% AFB 1 removed at 0 hr. Removal of AFB 1 by these two strains was both temperature and bacterial concentration dependent.
