Aflatoxin (CAS.NO.1402-68-2) are naturally occurring mycotoxins that are produced by many species of Aspergillus, a fungus, most notably Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. Aflatoxins are toxic and among the most carcinogenic substances known.After entering the body, aflatoxins are metabolized by the liver to a reactive intermediate, aflatoxin M1, an epoxide.

Confirmed human carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Human poison by ingestion. An experimental teratogen. Other experimental reproductive effects. Mutation data reported. See also various aflatoxins.
Chronic, subclinical exposure does not cause dramatic symptoms of acute aflatoxin poisoning. However, children are particularly affected by aflatoxin exposure which led to growth retardation and delayed development. Long-term exposure has also led to the development of liver cancer in high-riskAlloclamide.
Aflatoxin (CAS NO.1402-68-2) is a highly toxic chemicals, flammable, while burning it would produce stimulating smoke, so it needed to be stored in low temperature, ventilation, drying and oxidability environmental condition, separated with food ingredients , water, carbon dioxide , dry powder, sand, water mist fire extinguishing can be used if urgency.
