NIR does not measure mycotoxins; they are at concentrations below the resolution of the instruments. NIR responds statistically to changes in structure that in a given sample set are correlated with the toxin value. The problem is that in another sample set, from another area or growing season, those correlations have been very inconsistent, and therefore not predictive.

I think this is a very helpful contribution to our understanding of mycotoxicoses in pigs. Despite the limitations of this type of meta-analysis, it is very interesting to see the quantitative differences in feed intake and weight gain of pigs comparing individual and multiple co-contaminant challenges. This certainly helps us understand the increased severity of response when pigs are fed natural ...

Congratulations to the authors of the article. Regarding your comment, Mr. Trevor Smith, I totally agree with you: guidelines should take into account the multi-contamination. Another point is that government guidelines are based on performance but at lower levels we can already see negative effects on animal health.
