Microbiological and Toxicological Evaluation of Fermented Forages

Several feed preservation methods can ensure lower mycotoxin contamination levels enter the food life cycle, and a relatively common wet method of forage plant materials is fermentation. This study aimed to characterize microbiological state fermented silages haylages (corn, alfalfa, rye, triticale), their main microbiota, isolation bacteria with resistance. Bacteria that remain viable throughout fermentation process possess high resistance have biotechnological benefit. Lactic acid bacteria, primarily found in corn silage, were Lactiplantibacillus plantarum isolates. Meanwhile, percentage alfalfa silage haylage was characterized by pentosus. In rye samples, Pediococci typical bacteria. Bacterial isolates deoxynivalenol zearalenon Some them sensitive aflatoxin B1, while ochratoxin A caused 33–86% growth inhibition cultures. The resistant organisms are under further research, aiming for elimination feed.
