        <dc:subject>Aflatoxins</dc:subject>
        <dc:description>Aflatoxin contamination is a qualitative problem in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) occurring&#13;
at both pre-and post-harvest stages. These aflatoxins are secondary metabolites produced by&#13;
Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus and have carcinogenic, hepatotoxic, teratogenic and&#13;
immuno-suppressive effects. To evaluate the prevalence of A. flavus infection and aflatoxin&#13;
contamination in groundnut oil mills/traders’ of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh (AP) pod&#13;
samples were collected from eight selected oil mills/traders’ in Mahaboobnagar, Rangareddy,&#13;
Nizamabad, Karimnagar (Telangana); and Anantapur (AP) districts. A total of 24 pod samples&#13;
were collected (Three samples from the each selected oil mill). Aflatoxin contamination in&#13;
kernels was estimated by indirect competitive ELISA. In Telangana, kernel infection ranged from&#13;
42 (Mahaboobnagar) to 90.7% (Nizamabad). In AP, Tadimarri mandal recorded kernel infection&#13;
up to 29.3% whereas Tadipatri recorded up to 59.3%. Aflatoxins in kernels from these mills in&#13;
Telangana were highest in Rangareddy (1205.2 µg kg-1&#13;
) followed by Karimnagar (365.5 µg kg-1&#13;
).&#13;
Oil mills of Nizamabad and Mahaboobnagar have recorded aflatoxins to a tune of 4.9 and 11.5&#13;
µg kg-1 in Telangana. In AP, aflatoxins in pod samples were 2.8 µg kg-1&#13;
(Tadipatri) and 6148.4 µg&#13;
kg-1 (Tadimarri).</dc:description>
