Aflatoxin removal of peanut meals with aqueous ethanol

Abstract: ABSTRACT:A preliminary approach to achieve compatible simultaneous extraction of aflatoxin and residual oil from pressed oil meals was conducted to determine the minimum amount of water to be added to ethanol versus necessary time to achieve complete removal of aflatoxin. Commercial anhydrous, 96, 93 and 90°GL ethanol were utilized in trials with Soxhlet extractors. Commercial anhydrous ethanol did not remove aflatoxin completely and the extraction efficiency in minutes was directly proportional to the amount … Show more

“…In Brazil, the high volume of ethanol production allows one to purchase this material at low prices (Rittner, 1992). In general, previous studies of solid-liquid extraction, carried out with ethanol, showed a higher extraction of sugars, phosphatides, pigments and waxes, besides yielding a better meal compared to that obtained with hexane (Beckel et al, 1948;Fonseca & Regitano-d'Arce, 1993;Regitano-d'Arce et al, 1994). The solubility of vegetable oils in ethanol is dependent upon temperature and water content according to Johnson & Lusas (1983).…”

“…Physical methods include separation by solvent extraction [2][3][4] and adsorption to solid toxin binders such as aluminosilicates, activated carbon and some special polymers [5]. Physical removal is also achieved by electromagnetic waves such as gamma rays [6,7], solar radiation, and microwave heating [8].…”

“…Some authors also report that there is a higher extraction of sugars, phospholipids, pigments, waxes, and compounds that confer bitterness to the biomass, when the extraction of vegetable oils is made with ethanol, providing that the obtained biomass is of better quality, when compared to that obtained with hexane (Beckel, Belter, & Smith, 1948;Fonseca & Regitano-d'Arce, 1993;Johnson & Lusas, 1983).…”
