  • 일반적으로 우유는 필요한 영양분이 풍부한 식품으로 사람의 건강 증진, 유지 등에 큰 도움을 주고 있다. 하지만 전 세계적으로 우유와 유제품에 Aflatoxin M1의 존재는 20~30년 전부터 알려져 왔다. Aflatoxin M1으로 오염된 우유와 유제품은 특히 지난 10년에서 20년 동안 전 세계적으로 중요한 문제이다. 특히, 이 제품들에서의 미코톡신의 존재는 특히 성인보다 더 민감한 어린이와 유아에게 중요한 문제이다. 이 총설에서는 최근의 자료를 검토하여 전 세계적으로 다양한 지역에서 생산되는 우유 및 유제품에서 발생한 Aflatoxin M1의 현황, 관련 규정, 감소 전략, 검출 방법, 향후 연구과제 등을 정리하였다. 우유 및 유제품의 Aflatoxin M1 오염을 최소화하기 위해서는 지속적으로 발전하고 있는 분석 기법을 이용한 엄격한 규제와 우수한 우유 처리기술이 반드시 필요하다. 더 나아가서, 우유 및 유제품에 존재할 수 있는 Aflatoxin M1이 인체 건강의 미치는 영향을 올바른 인식할 수 있도록 교육도 함께 진행되어야 할 것이다.

  • 원유중의 아플라톡신 M1의 오염도를 측정한 결과, 일부 지역 원유 중, 일반수준으로 관리한 지역의 집합유, HACCP으로 지정되어 관리되는 농가의 집합유, 아플라톡신 M1 저감화 배합사료를 제공한 지역의 집합유를 검체로 하여 1년간 아플라톡신 M1의 수준을 모니터링을 실시한 결과, 일반적인 관리를 통해 집유된 집합유의 평균검출농도는 0.023±0.005 μg/l, HACCP 지정관리를 통해 집유된 집합유의 평균검출농도는 0.017±0.004 μg/l 그리고 저감화배합사료 제공을 통해 집유된 집합유의 평균검출농도는 0.013±0.003 μg/l으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 3개 지역 모두 한국이나 미국 그리고 유럽에서 정한 아플라톡신 M1의 기준치 이하로 검출되었으며, 저감화 배합사료를 제공한 농가의 아플라톡신 M1수준이 가장 적게 검출되었다. 아플라톡신 M1의 특성으로서 사료공급상태에 따른 평균검출농도가 계절별로 차이가 나는 경향을 보이며, 3가지 실험군에서 공통적으로 여름철에 비해 겨울철 아플라톡신 M1 수준이 가장 높게 검출되었다. 이는 겨울철 사료의 관리미흡과 더불어 사료 보관기간이 늘어나며 일반배합사료의 섭취량이 증가되고 장기화됨에 따라, 젖소에서의 아플라톡신 B1의 양이 농축되어 결과적으로 아플라톡신 M1 수준이 증가된 것으로 판단된다. 아플라톡신 M1의 수준을 낮출 수 있는 가장 직접적인 방법으로는 곰팡이 독소를 흡착하게 하는 배합사료를 공급하여 원유로 아플라톡신 M1이 전이되지 못하도록 하는 것으로써 일반수준으로 관리한 농가의 집합유에 비해 아플라톡신 M1의 수준이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 효율적이고 경제적인 측면을 고려하여 아플라톡신 M1의 수준을 낮출 수 있는 가장 효과적인 방안은 HACCP 지정관리를 통한 농가 및 사료의 관리라 할 수 있다. 또한 보다 실질적인 아플라톡신 M1의 수준을 감소시키기 위해서는 정부의 제도적인 지원과 낙농업계의 관리 및 농가의 철저한 위생관리가 필요하다고 사료된다.

  • Aflatoxin M1, ingested as aflatoxin B1 via contaminated feedstuff and later converted into, is a major problematic target for milk safety control among the aflatoxin class. Korean government has controlled level of AFM1 in milk at 500 ppt as maximum residue level (MRL), and more recently, government also publicized the proposal for more strict control on fungal toxins about infant and baby foods. In this study the levels of Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) of 42 marketed milk samples were determined with Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) to evaluate the status on the contamination of Aflatoxin M1. The evaluated ELISA performances of limit of detection (LOD) and the half maximal inhibitory concentration ($IC_{50}$) were 5 pg/mL (ppt) and 49 ppt, respectively. In all 42 samples, AFM1 appeared above the 5 ppt, with the average of 21 ppt and the range of up to 90 ppt. Only 3 (7%) of samples showed the level of contamination above the EU MRL (50 ppt). Although there was incidence of higher level of contamination compared with previous reports, the result of this study requires more intensive study to control of AFM1 in milk and infant foods.

  • The growth-inhibitory activity of Cassia tora seed-derived materials against seven intestinal bacteria was examined in vitro, and compared with that of anthraquinone, anthraflavine, anthrarufin, and 1-hydroxyanthraquinone. The active constituent of C. tore seeds was characterized as quinizarin, using various spectroscopic analyses. The growth responses varied depending on the compound, dose, and bacterial strain tested. At 1 mg/disk, quinizarin exhibited a strong inhibition of Clostridium perfringens and moderate inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus without any adverse effects on the growth of Bifidobacterium adolescentis, B. bifidum, B. longum, and Lactobacillus casei. Furthermore, the isolate at 0.1 mg/disk showed moderate and no activity against C. perfringens and S. aureus. The structure-activity relationship revealed that anthrarufin, anthraflavine, and quinizarin moderately inhibited the growth of S. aureus. However. anthraquinone and 1-hydroxyanthraquinone did not inhibit the human intestinal bacteria tested. As for the morphological effect of 1 mg/disk quinizarin, most strains of C. perfringens were damaged and disappeared, indicating that the strong activity of quinizarin was morphologically exhibited against C. perfringens. The inhibitory effect on aflatoxin $B_1$ biotransformation by anthraquinones revealed that anthrarufin ($IC_50,\;11.49\mu\textrm{M}$) anthraflavine ($IC_50,\;26.94\mu\textrm{M}$), and quinizarin ($IC_50,\;4.12\mu\textrm{M}$), were potent inhibitors of aflatoxin ${B_1}-8,9-epoxide$ formation. However, anthraquinone and 1-hydroxyanthraquinone did not inhibit the mouse liver microsomal sample to convert aflatoxin $B_1$ to aflatoxin ${B_1}-8,9-epoxide$. These results indicate that the two hydroxyl groups on A ring of anthraquinones may be essential for inhibiting the formation of aflatoxin ${B_1}-8,9-epoxide$. Accordingly, as naturally occurring inhibitory agents, the C. tora seed-derived materials described could be useful as a preventive agent against diseases caused by harmful intestinal bacteria, such as clostridia, and as an inhibitory agent for the mouse liver microsomal conversion of aflatoxin $B_1$ to aflatoxin ${B_1}-8,9-epoxide$.

  • For a survey of the occurrence of aflatoxin M$_{1}$ (AFM$_{1}$) in domestic cow's milk, we developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) system, and quantitated the toxin in cow's milk. In order to produce specific antibodies AFM, conjugated to bovine serum albumin (AFM$_{1}$-BSA) and Freund's adjuvant were immunized subcutaneously to rabbits. By use of the antiserum showing the highest titer and AFB$_{1}$-HRP conjugate, we established a competitive direct ELISA (cdELISA) for AFM$_{1}$, whose detection limit was 0.003 ppb. The cross-reactivities of the antiserum against aflatoxin M$_{1}$ M$_{2}$, B$_{1}$, B$_{2}$, G$_{1}$, G$_{2}$, B$_{2a}$, and G$_{2a}$, were 100, 29.9, 25.0, 2.7, 13.0, 0.65, 0, and 0%, respectively. When the cdELISA was applied to the cow's milk spiked with AFM$_{1}$ and followed by cleanup with C$_{18}$ cartridge, the mean recovery of the assay was 104% (mean of CV, 6.4%) in the final concentration of 0.01-1 ppb (10-1, 000 ppt). When cow's milk samples gathered from markets and farms were assayed by the cdELISA, the mean concentration and SD of AFM$_{1}$ was 80.4 $\pm$ 55.0 ppt (n=64; range, 5.6-280 ppt).

  • The effect of allyisothiocyanate, the mahor compound of radish on the growth of Aspergillus parasiticus R-716 and aflatoxin production, was investigated. An increase in the level of allylisothiocyanate results in a decrease both growth and aflatoxin per myclial weight, and the addition of 125 ppm allylisothocynate completely inhibited the growth of the strain. The addition of allylisothiocyanate to the culture of R-716 strain the production of aflatoxin. The inhibition of aflatoxin was more B-group than G-group and M-group during cultural period. The growth of strain and aflatoxin production were greatly affected by the addition of allylisothiocyanate.

  • Aflatoxin, a mixture of the at least four toxic and carcinogenic metabolites, is known to be produced by only a few fungi. The toxins were designated aflatoxins because they were produced by the mold Aspergillus flavus(A. flavus). However, at least four other toxins and other species of the genus A. niger, A. parasiticus A. ruber and wentii have been reported to produce aflatoxins. And also the identical compounds may also be produced by molds, the Pencillium. At least four different species of Penicilliurn have been reported to produce aflatoxins (P. citrinurn, P. frequentans, P. puberulurn. and P. variable). So it is now known that the problem of Aflatoxin is not restricted to the single species A. flavus, even though that is a very common mold. Also additional aflatoxins have been discorvered. For sereral years, only four aflatoxins were known: $B_1, B_2, G_1$ and $G_2$, so designated by reason of their fluorescence and chromatographic charateristics. It is now known that there are really two new toxic materials in the milk. During the past year(1966) they were christened aflatoxin $M_1$ and $M_2$, since they were first found in milk. The two other and most recently discorvered aflatoxins were isolated late in 1966 from cultures of A. flavus, and were designated aflatoxin $B_2a$ and aflatoxin $G_2a$. In order to obtain a breaf information about extent of contamination of foodstuffs by aflatoxin which is known to produce eight different mold, aflatoxin detection of cereals and fermented foods on sale, such as polished rice, barley, wheat, wheat flour, lentil, red bean, soy bean, noodle, kochuj ang and Dwenjang (fermented soy bean paste) and chong Kuk, were carried out. The results of this investigation were summarized as follows: The hexane:$CHCl_3$ extracts of polished rice, barley wheat, wheat flour, lentil, red bean, noodle and kochujang yielded fluorescent spots on thin layer plates. However their Rfvalues were different from those of authentic aflatoxins. The fluorescent substances of the extract from soy bean, Dwenjang and chong kuk showed very similar Rf values to those of the standard aflatoxins. By two dimensional thin layer chromatography and comparison of ultra violet absorption spectra, it was found that these fluorescent substances were not aflatoxins. To conclude, aflatoxins themselves were not detected directly in those samples tested.

  • Aflatoxin $M_1$ ($AFM_1$) after its bioconversion from aflatoxin $B_1$ in animal liver becomes the part of milk while heavy metals get entry into milk and milk products during handling in the supply chain. Aflatoxin $M_1$ and heavy metals being toxic compounds are needed to be monitored continuously to avoid any ailments among consumers of foods contaminated with such toxicants. Thirteen commercially available infant formula milk (IFM) brands available in Pakistani markets were analyzed for the quantitative determination of $AFM_1$ and heavy metals through ELISA and atomic absorption spectrophotometer, respectively. $AFM_1$ was found positive in 53.84% samples while 30.76% samples were found exceeding the maximum EU limit i.e. $0.025 {\mu}g/kg$ for $AFM_1$ in IFM. Heavy metals lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) were found below the detection limits in any of the sample, whereas the concentrations of iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni) ranged between 45.40-97.10, 29.72-113.50 and <$0.001-50.90 {\mu}g/kg$, respectively. The concentration of Fe in all the tested brands was found in normal ranges while the concentrations of Zn and Ni were found exceeding the standard norms. Elevated levels of $AFM_1$, Zn and Ni in some of the tested IFM brands indicated that a diet completely based on these IFM brands might pose sever health implications in the most vulnerable community i.e., infants.
