I. INTRODUCTIONMycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi (fusarium, aspergillus, penicillium mainly) that can cause serious health problems in poultry and may result in severe economic losses. They can exert negative impact on both performance (Kolawole et al, 2020) and intestinal health (Antonissen et al, 2014) depending on the type of mycotoxin, extent of exposure, its concentration ...

The most well-known and probably the most feared type of mycotoxins in dairy production are aflatoxins, and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in particular. When fed to cows, it is metabolically transformed in the liver into aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), which ...
