Özet

The systematic review was conducted to evaluate the effect of probiotics in the presence or absence of prebiotics on the reduction of aflatoxins B1 and M1 in food products. All available studies published in databases including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science from 2000 to May 2023; were screened accordingly. After the evaluation, 38 articles that met the inclusion criteria were reviewed. In the included studies, lactic acid bacteria were the most commonly used probiotic strains to reduce AFB1 and AFM1. The use of prebiotics in combination with probiotics increased the binding of aflatoxins. It has been shown that the binding efficiency of probiotics to aflatoxins depends on strain type, initial microbial and aflatoxin concentration, incubation temperature and time. Probiotics can be proposed as a biological tool to reduce aflatoxin levels. Furthermore, this systematic review provides valuable information for future research and practical applications in food safety management by identifying key factors influencing the effectiveness of such interventions.
