dc.description.abstractAflatoxins are a group of mycotoxins and secondary metabolites of various species of Aspergillus. Atlatoxins cause important health problems and have high potential effect on liver cancer. There are various forms of aflatoxins including I31, B1, G1, G1, M1 and M1 types. Aflatoxin Bi is most commonly seenin corn, groundnut than in othcr crops. The aim of this work is to determine the contamination levels in the local and branded corn flour that are marketed in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. A total of 40 samples were collected from retail outlets and super markets located in the study area. The Romar’s all-purpose method were used for the extraction of total aflatoxins. I-IPLC was used for the separation process. Out of 40 samples 23 samples (57.5%) have shown positive for aflatoxin (35% samples have shown positive for Gt, 5% samples have shown positive for G1, 50% samples have shown positive for B|, 32.5% samples have shown positives for B2). The overall results of tested samples indicated that contamination of corn flour with Bi type aflatoxin was very high.en_US
