Abstract

Aflatoxin M1 is the hydroxylated metabolite of aflatoxin B1 and may be found in milk or milk products obtained from livestock that have ingested contaminated feed. Iranian white cheese is made from ewe’s milk. The aim of this study was to evaluate Aflatoxin M1 contamination in ewe’s milk samples in Tabriz city (Iran) by ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay). Ten ewe milk samples from different cheese maker centers in Tabriz city were collected during 2 months (May to June 2009). AFM1 was found in 30% of the analyzed samples. Results show that in 3 samples (30%) the AFM1 concentrations were less than 5 ng/l. It can be concluded that AFM1 levels in the samples purchased in Tabriz city, appear to be safe at the moment
