Research progress on degradation of aflatoxin B1 by microbial method according to toxicity sites of aflatoxin B1

Abstract

The toxicity sites and toxicity mechanism of aflatoxin B1（AFB1） were explored in this study, and aiming at the toxicity sites of AFB1, the advantages of microbial degradation of AFB1 were compared. Then the degradation mechanism of AFB1 by detoxifying enzyme method in microbial method was reviewed. Moreover, the composite application of detoxification enzyme method combined with other methods is prospected.
