Distillers Dried Grain and Solubles (DDGS) is a by-product from the ethanol fermentation process that is sold to livestock producers as feed. Contamination of the wheat or corn feedstock by the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) limits the use of DDGS for this purpose. Ionizing radiation such as that produced by electron accelerators can destroy the Fusarium organism and has the potential to eliminate DON. The objective of this work was to investigate the effect of electron beam...

1. Introduction Fusarium head blight (FHB), regarded as one of the most important diseases of wheat, is caused by a number of Fusarium species. F. graminearum Schw. [teleomorph: Gibberella zeae Schw. (Petch.)] predominates in most parts of the world [1] while F. culmorum Sacc. and other Fusarium spp. are of rather regional and local importance [2,3]. The toxin contamination produced by the pathogens has made this disease...

This study investigates elimination of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and fumonisin B1 (FB1) by treatment with recombinant enzyme preparations. Biological degradation of AFB1: Recombinant 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase (2,3-DHBD) and dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (DHD) enzymes were produced through extracellular expression of respectively the bphC1 and bphB genes of R. erythropolis in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The recombinant 2,3-DHBD enzyme exhibited an enzyme...

Poultry, swine and dairy producers admit today that the presence of mycotoxins in the feed is one of the main factors affecting animal production. As a result of the higher prices of feed ingredients, their quality is getting worse, with some grains showing higher levels of mycotoxins. High contamination levels can also be found in distillers grains, an ingredient in increasing supply, originated from the use of corn in ethanol production in the US. Some producers consider that...

Introduction
Previous research has shown that dietary ZEA may reduce nutrient digestibility and increase oxidative stress in pigs; and that the use of Calibrin-Z (CAZ), thermally processed clay, can prevent the negative effects of ZEA. However, it is unknown what CAZ will do if pigs are already intoxicated with ZEA. Therefore, the objective of the present study was designed to answer: 1) can ZEA and CAZ effects be...

Mycotoxins are highly toxic secondary products of the metabolism of some fungi mainly belonging to Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium species. A toxic syndrome caused by mycotoxin ingestion in man and animals is referred to as a mycotoxicosis. It has been estimated that at least 300 fungal metabolites are potentially toxic for man and animals, and that as much as 25% of the world’s cereals are contaminated with known mycotoxins (Devegowda et al., 1998). Moreover, it can be...

Good day, We know that chemical methods to decontaminate mycotoxins have been widely used, especially for aflatoxins. Lately the usage of alumino-silicates as absorbents is more common. But these methods are rarely applied to human consumption. Nowadays, biotechnology is evolving rapidly, answering to certain industrial needs that before were problems. Which is the current knowledge about the application of biotechnology in the prevention or decontamination of mycotoxins?...

The significant research focus on mycotoxins in recent years has dramatically increased the awareness and understanding of the nature, occurrence and impact of mycotoxins on modern animal production. Without any doubt, mycotoxins truly represent an unavoidable risk because of the large spoilage and unpredictable contamination pattern associated with mycotoxin biosynthesis, which is largely due to environmental factors. In this...

Aflatoxins are highly toxic substances produced by several species of Aspergillus fungi. But not all Aspergillus produce aflatoxins. Some, in fact, are considered beneficial. One such strain, K49, is now being recruited to battle its harmful Aspergillus relatives, preventing them from contaminating host crops, like corn, with the carcinogen.
In collaboration with Italy's University of Bologna (UB) microbiologist Cesare...

1.0 INTRODUCTION Sorghum, ( Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench ) belongs to the grass family Graminece. It is a cultivated tropical cereal grass. It is generally, although not universally considered to have first been domesticated in North Africa. It is an important crop in West Africa. In fresh forms, immature pods and seeds are used as vegetables while Snack and main dishes are...

Contrary to common belief, aflatoxins are still present in many feed components and by-products worldwide. A number of companies claim that their products efficiently minimise this animal and public health risk by mycotoxin binding. A new tool using ducklings as testing animals allows evaluation of mycotoxin binders in ‘real-life’ conditions. This highly reproducible model allows the comparison of toxin binders for their efficacy in ‘real...
