Abstract

A total of 40 samples of animal feed and milk (20 of each) were randomly collected from four small dairy farms and analyzed for aflatoxin B1 and M1 respectively. The mean average of AFB1 and AFM1 were 41.38 ± 9.6, 1.07 ± 0.6, 7.48 ± 3.5 and 1.19 ± 0.9 ppb; 51.6 ± 10.8, 21.48 ± 4.5, 35.72 ± 7.3 and 8.63 ± 3.9 ppt in the examined animal feed and milk samples respectively. The incidence of AFB1 and AFM1 was detected in 80% (16) and 65% (13) of the examined animal feed and milk samples respectively. On the other hand, 25% (5) and 20% (4) of the examined animal feed and milk samples were exceeded the limits recommended by FAO/WHO. The relationship between the levels of AFB1and AFM1in the examined animal feed and milk were discussed. Also the effect of AFM1 on the human health was discussed. There is need to create awareness and establish routine monitoring of animal feeds and milk to reduce risk to animal and consequently human response.
