Aflatoxin is the most representative and the “culprit”. There are about 20 kinds of its derivatives, of which aflatoxin B1 is the most toxic and carcinogenic. Aflatoxins mainly contaminate grains, oils and their products, and various plant and animal foods can also be contaminated. Aspergillus flavus is easy to parasitize and produce toxins in cereal crops, oil crops and their processing by-products with high moisture content, making them moldy and deteriorating. People eat these foods or their processing by-products, and absorb toxins through the digestive tract poisoning in humans.
Hepatitis B virus and aflatoxin B1 are the two major risk factors for liver cancer in my country. Epidemiological surveys in my country have shown that liver cancer is highly prevalent in humid and warm areas, especially in areas where corn and peanuts are eaten more, which indirectly supports aflatoxin as one of the causes of liver cancer. HBV can enhance the carcinogenic effect of aflatoxin B1, and the two have obvious synergistic effects in the process of causing liver cancer. Therefore, it is particularly important to prevent food mildew.

Rational use of mildew inhibitor
Natamycin is a biological preparation that can be safely used in food, with strong anti-mold effect. Combined with other food additives that can strengthen its effect, it can be compounded into a high-efficiency antifungal agent. Reduce the possibility of food poisoning, disease and cancer.
Do not eat moldy food
