project

Every year, a large amount of corn is processed into livestock feed all over

the world and put into animal husbandry.

In the summer rainy season, the hot and humid environment makes a lot of corn moldy.

Among mycotoxins, aflatoxin B1 is the most toxic and carcinogenic mycotoxin,

which can cause great damage to the liver of humans and animals.

If feed contaminated with aflatoxin is eaten by animals,

aflatoxin will remain in graziery sideline products, like meat, eggs, and milk.
