  1. Aflatoxin M1 contamination in different Iranian cheese types: A systematic review and meta-analysis

    • International Dairy Journal
    • Meta-analysis was used to investigate the concentration and prevalence of AFM1 in different types of cheese consumed in Iran. The results demonstrated that the pooled estimated mean of AFM1 concentration in Iranian cheese was 130.65 ng kg-1 (95% CI: 110.43, 150.86), while the percentage of AFM1 positive samples were 66.56% (95% CI: 56.82, 76.30).
