Influence of cavitation effect on stability of aflatoxin in milk

Abstract

Mycotoxins are common natural food contaminants which pose a risk to human and animal health. The cavitation effect is often used to break down harmful materials in a liquid medium. In this study, we used a cavitation effect to reduce the amount of aflatoxins in milk. The results showed a 24.2% reduction in aflatoxin content in milk compared to the control sample. These findings indicate that the cavitation effect could be useful for the degradation of aflatoxin M1 in milk.
