Important role of milk in human, especially infacy nutrition is well known. On the other hand, contamination of milk with aflatoxins is considered as a potential risk for human health. In this study the presence of aflatoxin M1 in 86 samples of raw milk obtained from 86 dairy frams in Chahar Mahal & Bakhtiary by ELISA were analysed. In 41 out of 86 samples (%47.70), the presence of aflatoxin M1 was detected in concentration ranging between.2/868-176.192 ng/l. AFM1 level in 16 samples (18.6%) of positive samples were higher than the standard limit (0.05 mg/l) accepted by EU.
In addition, the results showed that there were significant difference between AFM1 levels in milk with number of cow's in herds and milk yield per kg a day (P<0.05).
