BIOREMEDIATION OF AFLATOXIN IN SELECTED FOODS AND ANIMAL FEEDS USING LIGNINOLYTIC ENZYME EXTRACTS FROM SPENT SUBSTRATES OF OYSTER MUSHROOM (Pleurotus ostreatus)
REFNo: A611ES
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the postharvest practices of maize and groundnuts, aflatoxin levels, cancer risks and the biodegradation potential of ligninolytic enzyme extracts from used P. ostreatus substrates on the total aflatoxin.
1.3.2 Specific objectives
The specific objectives of the study are to:
1.Determine postharvest handling practices as drivers of AF contamination in food in Teso and Busoga subregions.
2.Determine the total AF content (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1 and AFG2) in food (maize and groundnuts products).
3.Assess dietary exposure and the risks to the consumers (adults and children) of maize and groundnuts products.
4.Determine the AFB1, AFB2, AFG1 and AFG2 levels, formed metabolites and their toxicity in food (maize) after the ligninolytic enzyme bioremediation.
