Aflatoxines in voedsel
Risico’s en remedies

Aflatoxines zijn mycotoxines (gifstoffen uit schimmels) die worden geproduceerd door aspergillus-schimmels (A. flavus, A. parasiticus, A. nomius). Ze kunnen worden aangetroffen in (beschimmelde) granen (maïs, sorghum, tarwe), rijst, noten (pinda’s, paranoten, amandelen, cashewnoten, pistachenoten), zaden, peulvruchten (waaronder sojabonen), gedroogd fruit, kruiden en specerijen. Aspergillusgroei vindt vooral plaats tijdens productie en opslag in een warme en vochtige omgeving. Via dierenvoer kunnen aflatoxines in melk, kaas, eieren, kweekvis en vlees belanden.1
