Abstract

The effectiveness of ozonization and adsorption on nanodiamonds in decreasing the content of aflatoxin B1 is investigated in this paper. The successive treatment of aflatoxin B1 by water-soluted ozone and modified nanodiamond hydrosol is shown to result in the higher neutralization of the toxin than employing these methods separately. This makes it possible for us to suggest a new approach to detoxication. This approach involves the volume ozonization of goods infected by aflatoxin B1, followed by the use of nanodiamond hydrosol to adsorb the residual toxin.
