Abstract

Groundnut meal which was contaminated with 14C aflatoxin was ammoniated at 75 deg C, 35 psig for 30 min in a laboratory reactor and the distribution of label was measured in subsequent fractions. Only 45-50% activity was detected in the ammoniated meal after initial air-drying, 8% was detected in humins remaining after acid hydrolysis, 4-6% was associated with protein and 33-36% was associated with nonprotein residue. This residue contained all of the unreacted aflatoxin B1
