[0002] Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a naturally occurring, highly toxic fungal metabolite with strong carcinogenic and teratogenic properties, easily contaminating wheat and other grains and their products. Improper temperature and humidity control or a lack of mold prevention measures in some agricultural production and storage processes significantly increases the risk of AFB1 contamination. Once contaminated grain enters the human body through the food processing chain, it can induce diseases such as cancer, acute hepatitis, hemorrhagic necrosis, hepatocellular steatosis, and bile duct hyperplasia, posing a serious threat to public health and safety.

[0003] Conventional methods for detecting AFB1 currently include gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
