Potential hazardous human exposure to aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) via consumption of milk and milk products has been demonstrated by many researchers. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of this mycotoxin in buffalo and cow milk samples in the city of Afyonkarahisar, Turkey. For this purpose, 126 buffalo and 124 cow milk samples were collected from dairy farms in Afyonkarahisar province. AFM1 levels were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection. Although AFM1 was not detected in cow milk samples, AFM1 was found above the limit of detection (<0.008-0.032 µg/L) in 27% (34 out of 126) of the buffalo milk samples. The results of this study indicated the importance of continuous surveillance of commonly consumed milk or milk product samples for AFM1 contamination in Turkey.
许多研究人员已经证明，人类通过食用牛奶和奶制品会接触到黄曲霉毒素 M1（AFM1）。本研究的目的是调查土耳其阿菲永卡拉希萨尔市的水牛奶和牛奶样本中是否存在这种真菌毒素。为此，从阿菲永卡拉希萨尔省的奶牛场采集了 126 份水牛奶和 124 份牛奶样本。通过高效液相色谱-串联质谱检测法测定 AFM1 水平。虽然在牛奶样本中未检测到 AFM1，但在 27%（34 份中的 126 份）的水牛奶样本中检测到 AFM1 超过检测限（<0.008-0.032μg/L）。本研究结果表明，在土耳其，对常食用的牛奶或奶制品进行 AFM1 污染的持续监测非常重要。
