Abstract
Apart from its presence in primary agricultural products, aflatoxin and its metabolites may be detected in animal tissues and milk. As the aflatoxins are toxic and extremely carcinogenic, control of food contamination with them is imperative. Either the primary aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1 and G2) or their metabolites (M1 and M2) have been recovered from several animal tissues and milk. The bio-assay techniques which are currently available are not suitable for routine screening purposes. The chemical assay techniques, although more accurate, faster and more specific, have many serious drawbacks particularly in relation to efficiency of extraction.
