The Molecular Epidemiology of Chronic Aflatoxin Driven Impaired Child Growth
Figure 3
Structures of the aflatoxin species measured is validated exposure biomarkers. Aflatoxin-lysine is the digest product of aflatoxin-albumin detected in sera, AFM1 is the hydroxy metabolite detected in urine, and aflatoxin-N7-guanine is the depurination product of aflatoxin-DNA adducts.
