The objective of this study was evaluate the presence of AFM1 in 82 samples of pasteurized bovine milk commercialized in 11 municipalities in the State of Parana, Brazil, from March 2010 to May 2011. Analytical methodology used was the enzyme immunoassay to determine qualitatively the presence of AFM1 (detection limit = 0.05 ?g.kg-1). AFM1 was not detected in any sample. The results were satisfactory. However, there is need for monitoring by government agencies, in order to provide safety, quality and integrity for human health.
