Abstract: Recently, food safety problems associated with milk have consistently occurred in the country and abroad. Aflatoxins, a class of highly toxic compounds widely occurring in milk, have attracted growing public attention. Aflatoxins, as well as being strongly carcinogenic, are also teratogenic and mutagenic, posing a tremendous threat to human and animal health. Aflatoxin M1, a metabolite of aflatoxin B1, is a common toxin present in milk. In this paper, the sources and harms of aflatoxin M1 in milk are outlined with focus on reviewing the current progress in the development of analytical methods for the detection of aflatoxin M1.
