Abstract To establish the efficacy of Mycodetox B2 in alleviating aflatoxicosis, day-old broiler chicks (n=200) were divided into 5 treatment groups (T1-control; T2-T1+200ppb aflatoxin B1 (AFB1); T3-T1+300ppb AFB1; T4-T2+Mycodetox B2 and T5-T3+Mycodetox B2). Each diet was fed to 5 replicates of 8 birds each for 42 days of age. Overall liveability percentage (LP) in T3 was lower (P<0.05) than T1. The LP in T4 and T5 was higher than T2 and T3 and statistically similar to T1....
