Chestnuts have aflatoxin after germination, which is carcinogenic, don't think it's okay to remove the buds, aflatoxin is already in the whole fruit. Aflatoxin is a metabolite produced by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, which is highly toxic, and also has carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects, mainly causing liver cancer, and can also induce bone cancer, kidney cancer, rectal cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, etc. Aflatoxin is one of the strongest chemical carcinogens ever discovered.
Aspergillus flavus is widely found in soil, and when hyphae grow, they produce toxins, and the spores can spread into the air, infecting suitable parasites under the right conditions, producing aflatoxins.
Aflatoxin is mainly found in foods, oils and their products that have been contaminated with aflatoxin. For example, aflatoxin is most common in peanuts, peanut oil, corn, rice, and cottonseeds contaminated with Aspergillus flavus, and has also been found in dried fruit foods such as walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, dried chilies, animal foods such as liver, salted fish, and milk and dairy products.
First Aid Treatment: 1) Immediately stop ingesting food contaminated with aflatoxin.
2) Hydration, diuretic, hepatoprotective and other support**.
3) Severe patients are treated as toxic hepatitis**.
Here are a few ways to prevent germination:
Chestnut germination is a countermeasure to prevent chestnut germination by starting to germinate under suitable conditions of temperature, humidity and aeration
1. Utilization of plant growth regulators. Naphthalene acetic acid 150-200ppm or Bijiu 1500-2000ppm or cyanophyllin 1500-2000ppm plus 2000 times of liquid methyl tobuzine soaked fruit for 3 minutes can effectively inhibit chestnut germination and chestnut mildew rot.
2. When the sand storage method is adopted, the wet soil should be thickened in early spring, which is in the shape of steamed bread, so that the hot air is not easy to enter, which can effectively ensure low temperature and inhibit bud germination.
3. Mixed treatment of brine and soda ash. After 40-60 days of harvesting, when the chestnut is about to germinate after dormancy, it can be soaked in 3% salt and 2% soda ash mixed aqueous solution for about 2 minutes, and then put into the basket without drying.

How to save chestnuts:
1. Air-dried preservation: Chestnuts are immersed in a bucket of cold water, the water overflows the chestnuts, soaked for 7 10 days and then removed, packed in a bamboo basket, hung high in a ventilated place, and let it air dry naturally. In this way, if the chestnuts are allowed to dry, the shelf life of the chestnuts can be greatly improved.
Soaking chestnuts in water for three to seven days can effectively kill the bacteria and eggs in them, and then take them out and drip dry water, and then store them so that they are not easy to spoil. The effect is even better if a small amount of bleach is added to it (a concentration of 5 parts per 10,000 is sufficient).
2. Ventilation preservation: put fresh chestnuts in a cool and ventilated place, spread out the fresh chestnuts, do not stack the chestnuts, as long as the chestnuts can be ventilated, there is no problem in storing them for one or two months.
3. Air drying in a cloth bag: spread out the fresh chestnuts in a container, dry them in a cool and ventilated place for 2 or 3 days, and then put them into a cloth bag. Hang in a cool and ventilated place, shake and hit 1 2 times a day.
This method can generally allow chestnuts to be stored for up to 4 months.
4. Refrigerated preservation: Put the fresh chestnuts in the sun for about a day, then peel off the shell and put it in the refrigerator after putting it in the fresh-keeping bag, which can also improve the preservation time, but it should be noted that the chestnut must be preserved by removing the shell.
