Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The research results point to the need of sustaining plant protein sources to large populations in sub-Saharan Africa that have no access to meat. Proteins are essential components of the human body and therefore indispensable for human life. Malnutrition and diseases are often caused because of the lack of sufficient proteins. Since animal sources of protein are out of reach to more than 85% of the people of sub-Saharan Africa, the challenge is to make protein otherwise accessible, available and affordable to the ordinary man. Owing to the influence of climate change and population explosion, the situation at discussion will exacerbate within the coming decade. Therefore non-animal protein must be brought into focus in order to prevent major diseases of malnutrition.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Peanuts are commonly infected with yellow molds or Aspergillus flavus during pre- and post-harvest stages, storage and transportation resulting in aflatoxin contamination. Consumption of aflatoxin contaminated peanuts causes health hazards like; liver cancer, stunted growth and mental retardation, immune system suppression, allergies, and death in both humans and livestock. Recommended agronomic practices, good pre and post-harvest practices, chemical and biological control have been emphasized to overcome the above hazards. Adopting resistant varieties against Aspergillus flavus and aflatoxin contamination is considered as a cost effective strategy. Evaluation of different peanut varieties to A. flavus infection, determination of predominant Aspergillus species and levels of aflatoxin contamination in peanut varieties were the objectives of this study. Results showed that none of the varieties was immune to A. flavus infection. Differences were observed in the level of mycelial growth under different treatments. The Aspergillus species isolated from peanut kernels were; A. niger, A. flavus, A. nidulans and A. fumigatus. The aflatoxin contamination levels ranged from 6 to 27 ppb.
