Abstract
summarY AFLOXIN CONTAMINATION PROFILE AMONG PACKAGES OF PEANUT CANDIES. This study was carried out to evaluate the profile of aflatoxin contamination distribution among packages of peanut candies trading. Aflatoxin occurrence and distribution date from this study suggest that sampling plans to aflatoxin detection in processed products are always associated with high degree of uncertain of presence or not and of the true average level of contamination. To improve sampling plans it is necessary to consider the differences among product types. There are processed products whose the raw material is grounded, like “pacoca” and other that it is not, like “amendoim japones”. Occurrence and distribution of aflatoxin contamination among packages in lots of “pacoca” was more homogeneus than in lots of “amendoim japones”.
