A total 307 samples of dry fruits and edible nuts from Northern areas and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan were evaluated for the presence of aflatoxins (AFs). The samples were analysed using a reversed phase HPLC, equipped with fluorescence detector. Results have revealed that 132 out of 307 samples of dry fruits and nuts were found positive with aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and total AFs. The highest mean level of total AFs i.e. 7.89 ± 0.99 μg/kg was found in peanuts without shell and lowest mean level (2.45 ± 0.11 μg/kg) was found in watermelon seeds without shell samples. Samples 75 (24%) were found contaminated with AFB1, ranged from 8 to 10 μg/kg and 41 (13%) samples were found above the level of 10 μg/kg for total AFs. The high occurrence of AFs may cause health hazards for consumers and limit exports.
