title: Reduction of aflatoxin M1 in milk using hydrogen peroxide and hydrogen peroxide plus heat treatment.
abstract: Use of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) under various conditions of temperature and time to inactivate aflatoxin M1 in artificially contaminated raw milk was examined. The degree of inactivation was measured by Enzym Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). It appeared that there is no change in the content of aflatoxin M1 in milk contained H2O2 and examined after 24 hours without heat treatment and in contaminated milk without add of H2O2 and heat treated treatment at (63 degrees C for 30 min, 75 degrees C for 15 sec) but slight inactivation (4.3%) was obtained in milk boiled for 5 min without H2O2. Maximum inactivation (27.8%, 28.8% and 45.1%) were obtained using 1% H2O2 followed by heat treatment at 36 degrees C for 30 min, 75 degrees C for 15 sec and boiling for 5 min respectively.
