[Aflatoxin contamination of raw foodstuffs, food products and feeds in the Kazakh SSR from 1981 through 1983].

The time-course of changes in the contamination with aflatoxins of food raw material, foods and feeds, most widespread in Kazakhstan, was studied. It was established that in the republic, there is a high risk of the contamination with aflatoxins of food and feed corn, as well as the combined fodder. This is evidence of the necessity of exercising a more stringent control and carrying out appropriate measures on the part of the sanitary-and-epidemiologie and veterinary services.
