Reducing the amount of spilled milk caused by a toxin (Michigan State University) 

Michigan State University published an article stating that researchers at Michigan State University have won a $750,000 grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development to determine what level of aflatoxin M1 is safe to ingest from milk to prevent unnecessary waste.

Aflatoxins are a group of toxins produced by fungi (Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus) found in corn and tree nuts. Felicia Wu, a professor at MSU along with her research team that includes senior research fellows Derek Headey and Kalle Hirvonen are working on efforts to learn how AFM1 in milk affects children’s health in Ethiopia.
