The nuts, which are consumed by everyone and which are said to prevent many diseases from influenza to cancer, produce a harmful toxin called mold poison depending on the increase of the humidity and the temperature. The most important of these are the strong poisons and carcinogens, along with the mycotoxin variety Aflatoxin.
In our country, starting point for the majority of Aflatoxin work constitutes our export products. At the beginning of these are nuts, pistachio, peanuts, dried figs and corn. For this reason, trusted brands or products sold by trusted producers should be preferred. As a result of scientific studies, it is thought that Aflatoxin is the main cause of liver cancer in our country.
The quantities of Aflatoxin (B1, B2, G1, G2) should be controlled in terms of public health and the quality rules should be applied without interruption in the production of nuts products which have very great economic value for our country. In our laboratory , all microbiological analyses are carried out in dried fruits and varieties optional, except Chemical and Physical Analysis.
