| Abstract: | Small lots of cottonseed with low aflatoxin contamination were stored at 15, 18 and 22% moisture at 80 and 85 F. Maximum aflatoxin content was reached within 30 days’ storage. The range in moisture content was sufficient to cause a 10-fold increase in aflatoxin content between seed stored at 15.1 and 21.8% moisture. Aeration caused about a five-fold mean increase in aflatoxin content. Presented at the AOCS Meeting, Houston, May 1971. |
