Summary

In this meta-analytical study, in vivo experimental studies with adsorbents and biological products as feed additives for inactivation of aflatoxin (AF) in poultry feeds are summarized. Totally, 231 researches carried out in 42 different countries were examined and listed with the first author’s country name and presented their results in summary. This review presents the results of the experiments for nutritionists in the feed industry and scientists and provides a basis for total evaluation on the basis of regional results. The studies have been performed mostly in broilers (85%) among poultry species; and mostly in humid countries and/or the countries which import feedstuffs from them. Experiments to reduce negative effects of AF in poultry feed have been mainly performed with clays such as bentonites (BENT) and hydrated Na Ca aluminosilicate (HSCAS) single or in combination with biological matters such as yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae; SCE) and yeast derivates (Esterified glucomannan; EGM). The best way for producers and researchers, it is preferable to evaluate the preventive efficacy of feed additives as total in terms of performance, biochemical-hematological, immunological and gross and histopathological parameters, comparing AF group with AF plus feed additive groups. Scientists can assess the preventive efficacy and practical usability of feed additives in more detail by following the titles of articles, associate authors and/or materials and methods of related articles. In fact, for application in practice, focus on limiting AF contamination by optimizing harvesting and storage conditions should be stressed instead of expecting miracles from feed additives which have shown positive effects under experimental conditions.

Keywords: Aflatoxin, detoxification, poultry, feed.

Introduction
Aflatoxins (AF) are a major concern in poultry production and public health because of serious economic losses and health problems. AF in poultry feed cause listlessness, anorexia with lowered growth rate, poor feed utilization, decreased egg production and increased mortality (Miazzo et al 2000). Anaemia (Oguz et al 2000a), reduction of immune function (Gabal and Azzam 1998, Oguz et al 2003), hepatotoxicosis, hemorrhage (Ortatatli and Oguz 2001), teratogenesis, carcinogenesis and mutagenesis are also associated with aflatoxicosis. The toxicity of AF in poultry has been widely investigated by determining their teratogenic (Sur and Celik 2003), carcinogenic, mutagenic and growth inhibitory (Oguz and Kurtoglu 2000) effects. The biochemical-hematological (Basmacioglu et al 2005), immunological (Qureshi et al 1998), gross and histopathological (Ortatatli and Oguz 2001) toxic effects of AF have also been well described.
The problem of aflatoxicosis is not so easy to solve and requires constant attention throughout the entire process of grain harvest, shipping, storage, feed manufacturing, and its formulation. Utilization of AF-contaminated (AF-CT) raw materials presents a major problem. Detoxification, as well as routine AF analysis of feed ingredients, is an important step in a control program at field level. Preventing of mould growth and AF contamination in feed and feedstuffs is very important but when contamination cannot be prevented, decontamination of AF is needed before using these materials. Producers, researchers and governments aim to develop effective prevention management and decontamination technologies to limit toxic effects of AF.
Physical, chemical and biological strategies are essential to counteract the level of contamination of AF in foods and feeds. Practical and cost-effective methods of detoxifying AF-CT feed are in great demand. Besides of the preventive management, approaches have been employed including physical, chemical and biological treatments to detoxify AF in contaminated feeds and feedstuffs. An approach to the problem has been to use non- nutritive and inert adsorbents in the diet to bind AF and reduce the absorption of AF from the gastrointestinal tract.
Since the early 1990s, experiments with adsorbents such zeolites (ZEO) and aluminosilicates have proven successful, but high inclusion rates and possible potential interactions with feed nutrients are causes for concern (Dwyer et al 1997, Phil- lips 1999, Rosa et al 2001). Also, possible dioxin contamination may be a risk factor for using of natural clays in case of forest and trash fire near their source (Abad et al 2002, Fiedler 2002, Trckova et al 2004, Arikan et al 2009).
Possible solutions
Some studies suggested that the best approach for decontamination would be biological degradation such as yeast and yeast components which could allow removal of AF under mild conditions, without using harmful chemicals or causing appreciable losses in nutritive value and palatability (Bata and Lasztity 1999). A successful detoxification process must be economical and capable of eliminating all traces of toxin without leaving harmful residues without impairing the nutritional quality of the commodity (Bailey et al 1998, Kubena et al 1998, Parlat et al 1999). As a result, researchers have directed efforts towards finding effective means of biological degradation of AF.
Many pellet binding products and flowing agents (clay minerals) or feed materials (yeast and their derivatives) with the claim of mycotoxin (MYC) binding and or detoxification have been used in animal feeds worldwide. However, regulations for MYC binders and deactivators have not been implemented in many parts of the world for various reasons.
This negates the guarantee on the safety and efficacy of the product to the user. Therefore, it is important to have guidelines in place which prove safety and efficacy of such additives under different in vitro and in vivo conditions (Murugesan et al 2015).
The European Commission established a new group of technological feed additives for the reduction of MYCs in feed to overcome this unsatisfactory legal situation. In 2010, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) published guidelines with stringent requirements, e. g. the binding capacity must be demonstrated; MYC degradation products must be safe for target animals and consumers; minimum 3 in vivo studies with significant efficacy at the lowest recommended dose; relevant biomarkers of each individual MYC have to be used to demonstrate the efficacy of the product, for the evaluation of MYC deactivating products (EFSA 2010, Murugesan et al 2015).
Most studies have used greater concentrations of AF than are likely to be found under field conditions. The AF concentrations in these experiments ranged from 2 to 5 ppm (Kubena et al 1990, Stanley et al 1993, Kiran et al 1998, Kubena et al 1998, Ibrahim et al 2000, Miazzo et al 2000, Oguz et al 2000a, Rosa et al 2001), because these high concentrations were expected to elicit the toxic effects of AF and also any effects of the feed additive would be easily seen in a shorter experimental period.
The in vivo experimental trials performed by using adsorbents and biological products as feed additive in poultry are briefly given below. A total of 231 studies (in vivo and in poultry species only) were examined and are listed for 42 countries according to the first author’s institute.
Countries and researches Argentina

  • Uttpatel et al (2011) incorporated EGM (0.1%) into AF-CT (500 and 750 ppb) broiler breeders’ diet. Body weight of the breeders, egg weight, and specific weight of eggs, hatchability and chick quality were not affected by the levels of AF and adsorbent present in the diet.
  • Rosa et al (2012) added EGM (0.1%) to AF-CT (500, 750 and 1000 ppb) broiler diet; the addition of up to 750 ppb AF and adsorbent in the breeder diets during eight weeks did not affect the performance or blood parameters of their progeny.
  • Neff et al (2013) supplemented hydrated Na calcium aluminosilicate (HSCAS; 0.5%) to AF-CT (2.5 ppm) broiler diet for 21 d. AF residues were lower in livers and kidneys of birds fed AFB1 plus HSCAS when compared with birds fed AFB1 alone.

  • Eckhardt et al (2014) added Brazilian Ca-MNT (2.5 and 5 g/ kg) into AF-CT (3 ppm) broiler diet for 42 d. Dietary Ca-MNT positively affected parameters such as weight of liver, heart and gizzard and partially reduced the toxic effects of AF in broilers when included at levels of 2.5 and 5 g/kg in the diet.
  • Bovo et al (2015) supplemented fermentation residue containing SCE (1%) into AF-CT (2 ppm) broiler diet for 42 d. Feed additives reduced the adverse effects of AF on performance parameters; and severity of histological changes in liver and kidney caused by AF while partially ameliorated the changes on relative liver and kidney weights. Oliveira et al (2015) incorporated anti-MYC additives based on SCE (0.2%) to AFB1-CT (1 ppm) broiler diet for 21 d. The addition of two different kinds of SCE (0.2%) could reverse such effects. These are the first data reported from Brazil anti-MYC additives with preliminary isothermal analysis. Since beneficial characteristics of YCW in animal industry are strain dependent, this study suggests two new promising alternatives to ameliorate AF problem.
  • Sakamoto et al (2017) supplemented silymarin (0.05%) to AFB1-CT (1.5 ppm) feed for 60 days in quail. The concentrations of silymarin evaluated in this study were not able to mitigate the negative effect of AF on the metabolism and performance of laying quail.

  • Muhammad et al (2017) added curcumin (150, 300 and 450 ppm) to AFB1-CT (5 ppm) feed from 1 to 28 d in broilers. The administration of curcumin partially ameliorated the increase in liver weight and decrease in body weight in a dose-dependent manner. However, curcumin treatment inhibited CYP2A6 at mRNA and protein levels in AFB1 treated broiler in a dose-dependent manner.
  • Rajput et al (2017) supplemented grape seed (250 and 500 ppm) to AFB-CT (1 ppm) broiler diet for 28 d. The supplementation of grape seed in both levels to contaminated diet reduced AFB1 residue in the liver and significantly mitigated the negative effects of AFB1.

  • Liu et al (2018b) incorporated LAB (1.5x1010cfu/kg) and HSCAS) (0.3%) to AFB1-CT (40 ppb) from 1 to 21 d of age in broiler chickens. The LAB and HSCAS increased the digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, crude fat, and digestible energy by 4.0–15.0%, and improved immune function by modulating the relative weights of immune organs, lymphocyte percentages, and immunoglobulin contents. Additionally, residual AFB1 in serum and organs in LAB treatment was lower than HSCAS.

  • Attia et al (2013) added mannan oligosaccharide (MOS), HSCAS and L. acidophilus (2 g/kg) to AF-CT (200 ppb) broiler diet for 21 d. Lactobacillus was most effective in reversing the adverse effects of AF on growth and FCR and on the percentage, functions and morphology of the liver. HSCAS also improved the economic traits of broilers but was less effective than Lactobacillus and more effective than MOS.
  • El-Ghany et al (2013) incorporated HSCAS (0.5%), turmeric powder (80 ppm) into AF-CT (2.5 ppm) broiler diet for 5 weeks. Both HSCAS and turmeric powder treatment induced significant amelioration of the measured organs body weights ratio, humoral immune response to Newcastle Disease and biochemical parameters in aflatoxicated chickens.

  • • Raja et al (2017) supplemented Curcuma longa (1%) to AFB1- CT (1 ppm) broiler diet for 42 d. AF causes a marked oxidative stress in comparison to control, which was partially reversed by the supplementation of the C. longa (1%) in the feed. However, C. longa significantly improved the antioxidant status in induced aflatoxicosis and partially protected against the cytotoxic effects of AFB1 in broiler chickens

  • Mizrak et al (2014) incorporated sepiolite (1.5 and 3%) and MOS (0.1%) into AF-CT (120 ppb) laying hens’ feed for 12 weeks. The addition of MOS and sepiolite to the feed reduced the degree of digestion of AF by 6-12%. Addition of sepiolite to AF- CT diet had the beneficial effects on hen performance, egg quality, and blood and digestion characteristics.
  • Yenice et al (2015) supplemented SB (0.5 and 1%) and MOS (0.1%) into AF-CT (120 ppb) laying hens’ feed for 12 weeks. SB appears to be more effective than MOS as a toxin-binding agent in counteracting the adverse effects of AF on performance, egg quality, blood and digestion characteristic in laying hens.
  • • Uyar et al (2016) added Urtica dioica seeds (UDS) extract (30 ml/kg diet) to AF-CT (1 ppm) broiler diet for 21d. Supplementation of UDS extract helped restoration of AF-induced increase in MDA and reduced the antioxidant system towards normality, particularly in the liver, brain, kidney and heart. UDS extract has a protective hepato-renal effect in broilers affected by aflatoxicosis, probably acting by promoting the antioxidative defense systems.
  • Yavuz et al (2017) added EGM (0.1% and 0.2%) to AF-CT (2 ppm) feed for 21 d in quails. The addition of 0.2% EGM on AF-CT diet may protect quails from aflatoxicosis, as demonstrated by the alleviation of gross and pathological changes in the liver and lymphoid organs.

Conclusions
The evaluation of the preventive efficacy of protective agents is possible by determining significant statistical differences between parameters of AF and AF plus additive groups in the target organs and key parameters in favor of AF plus feed additive groups. In our opinion, the best way to assess the performance of feed supplements against AF toxication for producers and scientists is to evaluate the results “as total” in terms of performance, biochemical-hematological, immunological and gross pathologic and histopathological parameters by comparing the AF groups with AF plus feed additive groups.
Evaluation of experiments “as total” is not always easy, because authors from different departments sharing responsibility for designing the experiment and interpreting the results tend to publish special aspects of experimental results in different scientific journals, with focus on their own special field of interest. To assess the “total” preventive efficacy and practical benefit of toxin binders used in experiments, nutritionists in the feed industry may invest some of their time following the titles of articles and/or associate authors and/or materials and methods of articles - unless they rely on recent reviews.
The studies have been carried out mostly in broilers (85%) among poultry species and in humid countries and/or the countries which import feedstuffs from them (Table 1). Experiments to reduce negative effects of AF in poultry feed have been mainly performed with BENTs and HSCAS single or in combination with biological matters such as yeast (SCE) and yeast cell derivates (EGM) (Table 2). Nutritionists in the feed industry and scientists can examine the results and decide which protective agent to use, taking into account the AF dose in feed, levels of protective agent, the experimental period and the species/variety of poultry species. Feed supplements must be inert and non-toxic and have no pharmacological and toxicological effects themselves in the organisms of animals. Possible nutrient interaction and dioxin contamination should also be regarded for using of natural clays.
For application in practice, focus on limiting AF contamination by optimizing harvesting and storage conditions should be stressed instead of expecting miracles from feed additives which have shown positive effects under experimental conditions.
