    Abstract

    Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is one of the important mycotoxins found in milk and dairy products and is a metabolic product of aflatoxin B1. Today, it is possible to remove mycotoxins in food or animal feed by using physical, chemical or microbial methods. The aim of this research is to find a safe and harmless way to remove aflatoxin in the milk probiotic product, which does not pose any nutritional risk to humans. In this study, ice cream samples were prepared from reconstituted milk without primary aflatoxin. In all samples (control and probiotic), the changes of aflatoxin during the process were checked at two ppb levels (0.05, 0.1). Growth changes of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium lactis 12Bb were studied in aerobic and anaerobic MRS medium at 37°C. HPLC method was used to measure aflatoxin in ice cream samples. For this purpose, 20 samples with concentrations of aflatoxin M1 (0.05, 0.1 ppb) and 30% acetonitrile were used as solvents. The results of the statistical analysis showed that the amount of aflatoxin reduction at the end of the heating stage was 22.4% and 29.5% for the concentrations of 0.05 and 0.05 ppb, respectively, and there was a significant decrease (p<0.01). At the end of the fourth week of ice cream storage, the amount of aflatoxin reduction in both ppb levels (0.1, 0.05) which were 30.6% and 32.1%, respectively, had no significant difference (p<0.01). The microbial population growth of Lactobacillus rhamnus GG and Bifidobacterium lactis 12BB increased significantly (p<0.05) in all three samples during the warm house stage. The logarithm of the microbial population of Lactobacillus rhamnus GG at the end of the fermentation stage for all three concentrations of aflatoxin M1 ppb (0.05, 0.1) is 10.132, 10.02, 10.01 CFU, and for Bifidobacterium lactis 12 BB, it is 9.30, 9.30, 9.00 CFU, respectively. Also, the concentration of aflatoxin had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the growth of the microbial population of both species. During storage, the reduction of the logarithm of the microbial population for both types of probiotics in the higher concentration of aflatoxin was not significantly different from the samples containing the lower concentration of aflatoxin (p<0.05). M1 (AFM1) is one of the important mycotoxins found in milk and dairy products. Today, it is possible to remove mycotoxins in food or animal feed by using physical, chemical or microbial methods. The aim of this research is to find a safe and harmless way to remove aflatoxin in the milk probiotic product, which does not pose any nutritional risk to humans. In 2005, milk production in the world was estimated at 644 million tons, of which 541 million tons were cow's milk. By looking at the above statistics, we can understand the health issue of the milk consumed and consequently the dairy products produced from this amount of milk. The increasing consumption of dairy products by different people around the world has become a challenging topic for microbiologists, engineers, and technologists; Because they should find the best way to prevent the entry of microorganisms and destroy some of them and prevent their growth and activities. However, the issue that should be considered is that many of these microorganisms such as lactobacillus and bifidobacteria are beneficial for human health, and others, such as some fungi such as Aspergillus, which produce aflatoxin, can be harmful to human health. Milk contains a large amount of water and nutrients and provides an almost neutral environment, so milk can be considered as a source of toxic compounds such as mycotoxins (Maqsoudi 2019).

    Also, the nutritional nature of dairy products provides a suitable environment for the growth of microorganisms. Aflatoxin M1, known as milk toxin, is the main metabolite formed from AFB1. AFM1 can be found in the human body 12 hours after consuming AFB1. Due to the widespread consumption of milk and dairy products, the presence of aflatoxin M1 in these products has become a big concern. Therefore, finding out how milk is contaminated with contaminating microorganisms is one of the most important measures in dealing with the health of milk and then dairy products. Currently, milk consumption in Iran is 70 to 80 kg, which is 350 to 500 kg in developed countries. Therefore, the need to produce a quality product as a supplier of part of the calcium and protein consumption can answer some of the nutritional problems of the society. Milk, which is considered as a complete food, has many products that are consumed by the general public, and ice cream is particularly important as one of the important products of Shiraz. In the past years, the consumption of ice cream was mostly reserved for children and teenagers, but now its consumption has spread to all members of the society, and of course, the production and consequently the consumption of all kinds of ice cream has grown considerably. In milk, there are agents that produce aflatoxins; Therefore, it is very important to provide conditions that can reduce the amount of this poison and provide a healthier product. Considering the importance of aflatoxin in carcinogenesis and reducing human immunity and health, the purpose of this study is to investigate the amount of aflatoxin in ice cream obtained from milk, and since the consumption of ice cream, which is considered a probiotic product of milk, is of particular importance in terms of improving human health, it seems necessary to carry out this research study.
