Abstract
Accurate and reliable determination of aflatoxins in food is important for human health. There is no standard method for the determination of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in cheese, a more complex matrix, compared with milk. In this research, we applied two analytical detection techniques (a standard accredited HPLC method for AFM1 in milk and a commercial ELISA method), with three extraction methods, on two different cheese matrices, with repeated tests and appropriate statistical analysis. The examined methods were sensitive, with detection limits from 10 to 25 ng/kg. The validation parameters were in accordance with current regulations and therefore could be successfully used for the determination of AFM1 in cheese.
