Mycotoxin deactivation by mycotoxin degrading enzyme
Published:July 6, 2023
Summary
This study was investigating the effects of a defined concentration of Fusarium mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZON) incorporated into feeds on growth performance of pigs and the alleviating effects of a mycotoxin degrading enzyme (MDE) on the toxicity of Fusarium mycotoxins. A total of 48 weaning pigs was randomly allotted to four treatments for a 6-week challenged trial. The ...
Thank you for your message. Regarding the question you asked, we have conducted a series of experiments in poultry. I will send the information to your Gmail.
Congratulations for the results. I can agree of MDE with partial sparing effect. Now try the test on real contaminated feed to prove the direct effect on a toxic molecule that is surrounded by flower feed. For now the controled toxins surround the feed, and it is exposed the enzyme. What if the DON ZON are behind?

Thank you for your message.
Toxi-Free PLUS® which has three different special activity enzymes to degrade various types of mycotoxins for reducing the toxins' negative effects on animal.
Adding Toxi-Free PLUS® to the feed as daily care product can reduce the damage caused by the mycotoxins, improve the health of farm animals, and result in increasing farmers’ profit.
The use of mycotoxin adsorbent is the most common method for mycotoxicosis due to the effectiveness and economic benefits. However, lots of research have shown that the adsorbents worked on the needed nutrients at the same time and caused unexpected deduction of nutritional value of feed. More and more animal producers choose enzymatic solution for mycotoxin aiming to detoxify mycotoxins while preserving the nutritional value of the feed. This is important to ensure that the animal receive adequate nutrients for optimal growth and performance.
@Janet Tsai Adsorbants are only used for Polar mycotoxins like Afla Toxins and Ochra toxins. While you are discussing and focusing on Non Polar toxins like DON, ZON and Nivalenol toxins. So my question is what will be the effect of these enzymes on Polar toxins ( which are more common in field than non polar toxins) ?
Our product Toxi-Free PLUS® which has three different special activity enzymes to degrade various types of mycotoxins for reducing the toxins' negative effects on animal.
Toxi-Free PLUS® also have many animal trial reports including pigs and poultry
@dan hofer TAHIR mentioned absorption capabilities. It is not the same as quemical reactions. Either way is not an easy and complete task. Their value is to reduce concentration in order to minimize dangerous effects. The 2 ways are not complete free of toxins causing tissue damages.
