“…The production of aflatoxins in food is a gradual process, so early diagnosis before aflatoxin production is crucial to effectively prevent their formation and spread. Researchers have explored various methods for achieving early detection of aflatoxin contamination, such as diagnosing the risk of aflatoxin contamination by measuring the expression of biomarkers (genes, metabolites, or proteins) associated with aflatoxin production (Baquiao et al., 2016; Li et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2022; Xie et al., 2022), as well as establishing warning models based on specific indicators (such as temperature, humidity, pH, etc.) in historical monitoring data to predict the risk of toxin production (Hu et al., 2013; Temba et al., 2021).…”
