“…Although rice is not the high-risk commodity for AFs contamination, AFB 1 besides other mycotoxins have been found in rice from China, Egypt, India, Iran, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, United Kingdom, and the United States [42], [54]. Palumbo et al [55] found that AFs in rice of the highest mean concentrations of AFB1 n = 124; mean 3.1-3.3 μg/kg; max: 91.7 μg/kg. In our results, the total AFs were detected in some foods above the acceptable limits set by the European Union 4 ug/kg could be attributed to some suitable factors such as pH, nutrient composition, moisture content water activity, as well as external factors as temperature, relative humidity, soil properties, insects, and rodents attack [56], [57].…”
