Comparative Efficacies of Imarsil and Activated Charcoal in Reducing AflatoxinM1 in Cows’ Milk
Published In: GJSFR Part: D: Agriculture & Veterinary Volume: 14 Issue: 10
Many health risks associated with Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) drive the demand for its control. Adsorption studies of AFM1 were performed using activated charcoal (AC) and imarsil (0.5, 1 or 2%) at aflatoxin contamination rates of 9, 231 or 456 ng/L for 5 h at 4, 16, 28 and 32oC. The aflatoxinadsorbing capabilities of the two adsorbents depend on the adsorbent, adsorbent concentration, contact t...
