Abstract
A cause and effect relationship of Aflatoxin and liver cancer is well established. The incidence of liver cancer is 3.6% in Karachi (Zuberi et al., 1976) and Aflatoxins have been detected in 43% of 28 samples of food analysed in this study. The long term ingestion of aflatoxin with food may have some effect on the existing pattern of liver cancer in Karachi.
