Abstract

Nut products are susceptible to contamination with mycotoxin, especially aflatoxins, which results of mold growth during harvest or storage. This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of aflatoxins in peanut products from the Saudi market. A total of 472 samples of peanut and peanut butter imported from various countries were collected in the period from 2015 to 2020. All samples were analyzed by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). Total aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2) were found to exceed the maximum level (ML) in 38 samples (8.1 %) with a concentration range of 15.56-973.21 µg/kg, while 434 samples were below ML (91.9 %). Specifically, in Peanut butter samples, 27 out of 333 were contaminated with Aflatoxins (8.8 %), and 11 out of 139 peanut samples were contaminated with aflatoxins (8.6 %). The results show that the percentage of Aflatoxins contamination was reduced in the period (2019 - 2020) compared to (2015 - 2018), due to the control of mycotoxins in Saudi Arabia which played an important role in reducing the contamination of AFs in peanut products.

2015 - 2020年沙特市场商品花生和花生酱中总黄曲霉毒素（B1、B2、G1、G2）的发生情况

坚果产品容易受到霉菌毒素的污染，特别是黄曲霉毒素，这是在收获或储存期间霉菌生长的结果。本研究旨在评估沙特市场花生产品中黄曲霉毒素的发生情况。2015年至2020年共收集各国进口花生及花生酱样品472份。所有样品均采用高效液相色谱法进行分析。总黄曲霉毒素（B1、B2、G1、G2）超过最大限量（ML）的样品38份（8.1 %），浓度范围为15.56 ~ 973.21 µg/kg，低于ML的样品434份（91.9 %）。具体来说，在花生酱样品中，333个样品中有27个被黄曲霉毒素污染（8.8 %），139个花生样品中有11个被黄曲霉毒素污染（8.6 %）。结果表明，与2015 - 2018年相比，2019 - 2020年期间黄曲霉毒素污染百分比有所下降，这是由于沙特阿拉伯对霉菌毒素的控制在减少花生制品中AFs污染方面发挥了重要作用。
