<dct:description><p>The threat of aflatoxin contamination in food commodities and its association with health risks<br> in both animals and humans continues to raise increasing concern over years. In this research, A.<br> flavus species found in association with peanuts in storage and their potential to produce<br> aflatoxin in collected samples was determined. About 11 to 87% of collected peanut samples<br> were infected with various moulds including Rhizopus sp., Fusarium sp., Aspergilus flavus, A.<br> niger, other Aspergillus sp., Penicillium sp., and other undefined sp.<br> Aspergillus flavus is known to be the most patent aflatoxigenic strains infects 80.69 % of the<br> total samples analyzed. Eighty five percent of the tested isolates of A. flavus were capable for<br> the production of aflatoxins.<br> From the total of 52 peanut (Arachis hypogaea) samples analyzed, 38 (73.06 %) were positive<br> for aflatoxin. The average levels of aflatoxins detected in the seed samples were between<br> 0.57(from Babile new harvest sample) to 447.02 ppb (from Babile three month stored in pp bag).<br> The higher level of toxicity is more than twenty times greater than the acceptable dosage (20<br> ppb: US Standards) in peanuts of three month stored after wet shelling. This research pointed out<br> that the storage and shelling practice of farmers have effects in aflatoxin contamination in peanut<br> despite enormous efforts to control this mycotoxin&nbsp;</p></dct:description>
