| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aflatoxins (AFs) are genotoxic mycotoxin and FAO/WHO recommends that AFs not take as much as possible. In this study, the systematic methods how to minimize the intake of AFs were developed. we developed noncompetitive homogeneous ELISA with the information of DNA sequence of monoclonal antibody to measure AFs in food. We found that Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis NCDO 604T isolated from cucumber had high affinity to AFs as a detoxication of AFs.We found the biomarker to monitor of exposure to AFB1. The mouse in vivo experiment revealed that AFM1 in urine was good biomarker within 24hrs post intake of AFB1. Exposure to AFs could be suppressed by using these methods systematically.
