Our previous studies showed intragastric administration of Aflatoxin G(1) (AFG(1)) could induce lung adenocarcinoma, which derived from alveolar type II cells (AT-II cells). AT-II cells contribute to Aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1)) metabolism and also serve as the potential progenitor cells for
Aflatoxins (AF) are the mycotoxin with the carcinogenic effect produced by the fungi like Aspergillus flavus, including AFB(1), B(2), G(1), G(2), M(1), and so on. The detection rate of Aflatoxin G(1) (AFG(1)) is very high in the diet of residents

Different local and exported white cheese samples were collected from different markets in Jeddah during September 2008. Trace and heavy metals including Pb, Zn, Mn, Cu, Fe and Cd were analyzed using atomic absorption spectrometry. The concentration of the tested
Aflatoxins are extremely toxic metabolites from Aspergillus species that can adulterate a wide range of human foodstuff. Herein, we propose a novel assay designed as an analytical test for aflatoxin B1 and G1 (AFB1 and AFG1, respectively) that could represent

In aflatoxin biosynthesis, aflatoxins G(1) (AFG(1)) and B(1) (AFB(1)) are independently produced from a common precursor, O-methylsterigmatocystin (OMST). Recently, 11-hydroxy-O-methylsterigmatocystin (HOMST) was suggested to be a later precursor involved in the conversion of OMST to AFB(1), and conversion of HOMST
