1. Introduction Mycotoxins are secondary toxic metabolites produced by filamentous fungi which, even at low concentrations, represent an important danger for both animal and human health [1,2]. Currently, over 300 mycotoxins have been identified worldwide, being aflatoxins, ochratoxins, zearalenone, trichothecenes, and fumonisins, the most frequently found with synergistic toxic effects reported when more than one of these mycotoxins are present in the feed [3,4]. Mycotoxins are...
Mycoad and Mycoad AZ adsorb and retain mycotoxins in the gastrointestinal tract to be excreted through the feces, eliminating or diminishing toxicity and immunosuppression, with a significant improvement in animal performance. Know more about these products developed by Special Nutrients and distributed by APSN Biotech in Malaysia. Special Nutrients is a worldwide leading supplier of scientifically proven mycotoxins binders. ...
Corn-soya based mash diet has problem in flowing in the feeder and it gets stuck in the bridge. Some of the literature say that sodium bentonite can be mixed at the rate of 2kg/ton to overcome this problem. I need practical suggestion regarding use of sodium bentonite in poultry mash feed. And is there any other more effective solution to this problem other than using clay? ...
Nancy Zabe Collette, Technical Services and Applications Manager at Vicam Waters, points out the main problems caused by mycotoxins in the feed, the benefits of VICAM immunoaffinity column products, and more in this interview

Fernando Tamames III, President at Special Nutrients, highlights how a series of investigations on mycotoxin binding solutions were completed to scientifically demonstrate the ex vivo endotoxin neutralization capacity in piglets....
Why this event
Since many years ago, the risk of contamination of food and feed by mycotoxins has been reduced by careful control of raw materials. Rapid methods played a key role in this. There are many products on the market. Products are not only fast, but also accurate enough,...
1. Introduction As a widely cultivated crop and staple food in the world, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is crucial for ensuring food security. Unfortunately, its production is limited by many abiotic and biotic stresses. Among biotic stresses, fungal diseases are the most important. Worldwide, one of the most devastating fungal diseases of wheat is Fusarium head blight (FHB) or scab, which is caused by a number of different Fusarium species, but most commonly F. graminearum. FHB...
In 2021 mycotoxins semiannual survey, Life Rainbow Biotech randomly collected 163 feed samples of raw materials and feed mills in farms and analyzed. The samples were tested for aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, and G2), zearalenone, fumonisins (B1, B2, and B3) and deoxynivalenol (DON) by the ELISA Mycotoxin analysis kit. Results: 163 feed samples collected, and 74.8% were contaminated with Zearalenone and 71.8% contaminated with Aflatoxins (table 1). The maximum concentrations of...
The identification of mild to moderate gizzard erosions (GE) in more than 20- 30% of the healthy commercial broilers examined in post mortem sessions, is commonly found in several countries in the Americas and Asia. The gizzard, also called...
1. Introduction The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimated that 25% of the cereal production is contaminated by mycotoxins [1]. Aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1 )—the major secondary metabolite of Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus, and A. nomius—has adverse effects on humans and animals that result in health disorders and economic losses. To avoid these harmful effects, many physical, chemical, and biological decontamination...
1. Rumen protects dairy cows against mycotoxins… only partially Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites, produced by fungi, that can develop in grains and forages. The most well-known and probably the most feared type of mycotoxins in dairy production are...

1. Introduction One of the main toxic factors in dairy products is the concentration of mycotoxins, which are secondary metabolites produced by organisms of the fungus kingdom [1]. They can cause diseases and even deaths either in humans or in animals [2]. The term “mycotoxin” is usually intended for the toxic chemical products of fungi. The fungi consume organic matter where humidity and temperature are adequate. If the conditions are appropriate, fungi proliferate...
I would like to discuss the role that HSCAS (zeolite powder) plays in Toxin Binders. I welcome your candid opinions on this topic. ...
The safety and quality of feed materials, such as grain, is a high-profile topic of great importance. Grain is an important and significant source of contamination in the food chain and it also carries the risk of the consumers being exposed to toxins. As grain storage is an integral part of the food and feed supply chain, the storage operations of grain should include the control of any potential hazards (insects, molds, mycotoxins etc.) which could compromise the safety and quality of...
The addition of mycotoxin sequestrants to mycotoxin contaminated diets has been considered the most promising dietary approach to reduce the negative effect of mycotoxins. Adisseo has developed a portfolio composed of Unike® Plus, Toxy-Nil® Plus and Toxy-Nil® to propose the best-suited solution to a specific challenge. Toxy-Nil® : Reliable protection against moderate-level mycotoxin contamination Toxy-Nil® Plus: Powerful protection against broad-spectrum mycotoxin contamination
Unike® Plus:...
