Mycotic contamination and aflatoxin potential of molds in Capsicum annum (chili), and chili powder commercialized in south Indian markets

V. Hadil Mon et al.

Summary: Chili and chili powder consumed in south India are prone to mold contamination, especially Aflatoxins. The presence of fungi and mycotoxins in these products poses a major health threat. Chili contains more fungal spores than chili powder. It is important to eliminate molds and mycotoxins from food items to ensure food safety.

Exposure Assessment of Multiple Mycotoxins and Cumulative Health Risk Assessment: A Biomonitoring-Based Study in the Yangtze River Delta, China

Qingwen Huang et al.

Summary: This biomonitoring study investigated exposure to 23 mycotoxins/metabolites in 227 adults in the Yangtze River Delta, China. Multiple mycotoxins were commonly detected, with some combinations posing potential endocrine disrupting risks. The study suggests that cumulative exposure to mycotoxins, specifically AFB1, could constitute a potential health concern.
