DETERMINATION OF AFLATOXIN IN DAIRY FEEDS AND MILK IN SOME SELECTED AREAS OF ETHIOPIA

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in feeds and aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in milk were studied in Holetta, Bishoftu and Hawassa, Ethiopia using Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Concentrate feeds were more contaminated (7.67 ± 0.80 μg/kg) than roughage feeds (0.41 ± 0.14 μg/kg); hay was more contaminated (0.72...
