Assessment of a hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate agent and antioxidant blend for mitigation of aflatoxin-induced physiological alterations in pigs

Supplementation of HSCAS is effective in preventing the negative effects of dietary aflatoxin in young pigs as measured by growth and serum chemistry parameters. Supplementing with antioxidant does not mitigate most negative physiological effects associated with aflatoxin consumption.

Evaluation of an aluminosilicate to decrease the toxic effects of Aflatoxin B1 in swine

AFB1, at the concentrations used for this experiment, affects the animals as shown by the increase in alkaline phosphates and GGT enzymes. Also, the decrease of these enzymes in the group that received the diet containing the absorbent proves the protections of these absorbents.

European Union - EFSA: Occurrence data of trichothecene mycotoxins T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin in food and feed

The aim of the current study was to collect, compile and synthesise data on T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin, including contamination of food and feed commodities and products thereof in Europe, co-occurrence with other mycotoxins, and factors (environmental, agronomic and processing) influencing the levels of T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin in plant products used for food and feed production.
