Aflatoxin is a toxic secondary metabolite mainly produced by fungi such as Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. It exists in soil, animals, plants, and various nuts, and is particularly prone to contaminate grain and oil products such as peanuts, corn, rice, soybeans, and wheat. It is a carcinogenic substance with high toxicity and prominent harm to human health caused by mycotoxins.

When using edible oil press, if the quality of the raw materials is not good enough, especially after using materials contaminated with Aspergillus flavus, it will lead to excessive levels of aflatoxins in the finished oil. Due to the strong toxicity and difficulty in decomposition of aflatoxin, long-term consumption of edible oil with excessive levels of aflatoxin can damage organs such as the liver, kidneys, spleen, and adrenal glands. After damage to organs such as the liver, symptoms such as stomach discomfort, decreased appetite, nausea and vomiting, abdominal distension, and tenderness in the liver area may occur.

Bentonite, a food additive, has a unique intercalated molecular structure that exhibits good adsorption, expansion, dispersion, and cation exchange properties, thereby demonstrating excellent physical adsorption characteristics. This adsorption characteristic can effectively adsorb Aspergillus flavus in edible oil, fix it in the spatial layer, and then filter it out by physical sieving method.

Bentonite, a food additive, can adsorb and remove more than 70% of aflatoxin in edible oil, greatly reducing the content of aflatoxin in the oil and making it meet national standards. Bentonite itself is a natural, pollution-free green non-metallic mineral that does not have a negative impact on the quality of edible oil.

There was a saying in the food industry that goes, 'Without food additives, there would be no food industry today.'. It has been proven that good food additives can indeed improve the quality of food, just like the special food additive bentonite for removing Aspergillus flavus in edible oil. Combined with advanced edible oil production and processing technology, the content of Aspergillus flavus in edible oil can be reduced to the limit level, and qualified edible oil products can be put into the hands of consumers.
