Abstract
An International Aflatoxin Check Sample Committee was formed in 1971 to establish a check sample program of commodities or materials with aflatoxin contamination, which would be available to laboratories throughout the world. A set of 4 aflatoxin-contaminated peanut samples was prepared and mailed to 150 participating laboratories. Sufficient data were obtained from this study to permit a statistical comparison of 3 of the 4 AOAC methods for analysis of peanuts and peanut commodities. The analysis showed significantly higher means for the CB method tbun for the BF or Pons method for 2 of the samples examined.Keywords
