ABSTRACT:
A method for obtaining food products substantially free of aflatoxin in the form of particles, kernels, and the like, is disclosed wherein a food product such as whole grain seeds or whole kernel nuts are subjected to a weakly alkaline aqueous solution maintained at elevated temperatures for a short period of time, washing the thusly treated food product with water until the wash effluent indicates that it is pH neutral and separating the aflatoxin-contaminated food product from the uncontaminated food product. The uncontaminated food product sources can then be further processed to obtain a food product ready for consumption.
