الملخص

Aflatoxin is a potent carcinogen that poses a major risk to both human and animal health. Several molds, particularly Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, produce a class of mycotoxins that are known to be extremely carcinogenic. It is also difficult to demonstrate carcinogenicity. Aflatoxin exposure is one of the primary etiological variables that contributes to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Aflatoxin M1 is one of the main toxins found in milk and dairy products that has been criticized. There must be ongoing research and monitoring to safeguard public health and safety. In the temperate zone, growing temperatures and climate change have led to an increase in the presence of fungus toxins, namely those made by the Aspergillus species, in food products and feeding plants. Research has indicated that in most European nations, AFM1 can be found in both breast milk and cow's milk. As a result, the amount of toxins in milk should be given more attention, and any milk that has more than the permissible amount should not be drunk.
