Study some factors affecting the ability of strains of lactic acid bacteria to bind aflatoxin M1 in milk


Abstract in English

Four strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from different genus، species and sources were tested for their abilities to bind of AFM1 for 14 hours. Lactobacillus rhamnosus LC705 showed higher ability to bind AFM1 (88.35%)، followed by Bifidobacterium bifidum BG1 (84.21%), Lactobacillus bulgaricus R21 by 80.41% and finally Streptococcus thermophilus by 71.52% after 14 hours of incubation.
