Field experiment in Ugandan cassava stores reveal that slow-release SO2 sheets suppress aflatoxigenic fungi, resulting in undetectable aflatoxin B1 levels

Aflatoxin contamination in stored crops poses a serious threat to public health and food safety, particularly in tropical regions where warm, humid conditions favour fungal growth. Cassava, a staple in many developing countries, is vulnerable to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination during storage, nece...
