Abstract

Dried citrus waste was fed to dairy cows, their milk was extracted, and aflatoxin M1 was quantitated by using both high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and thin layer chromatography (TLC). Results indicate that a compound from the citrus waste, which is excreted into the milk, interferes with the HPLC determination of aflatoxin M1 in milk and causes a false positive test. This interference can be overcome by using TLC with proper selection of developing solvents.
