摘要

In this study, a total of 1253 dried fig samples were analyzed for aflatoxin contamination. 838 samples were collected during 2024, and 415 samples were collected during 2025 from different export companies in Aydın province in Turkey. Analyzes were carried out in an accredited laboratory operating in Aydın province and the HPLC-FLD method was used. While 172 (50.2%) of 838 dried fig samples examined in 2024 contained aflatoxin in the range of 0.43–60.73 µg/kg, 81 (19.5%) of 415 samples examined in 2025 contained aflatoxin in the range of 0.87–40.08 µg/kg. When 2024 and 2025 were evaluated together, detectable levels of aflatoxin were detected in a total of 253 dried fig samples, and 29 of them were found above the EU upper limits. The sample rate exceeding the EU upper limit on the basis of total fig samples is 2.2% and 2.7% for 2024 and 2025, respectively.
