چکیده
Corn was an important crop for people who lived in the area that became Illinois before the Europeans first set foot here; it was the staple food crop of the people who lived in the Cahokia area some 1,000 years ago. It was a crop of choice when Europeans settled and started to farm in Illinois, and acreage in the state first reached 10 million acres in 1895. Acreage over the past 100 years has ranged from about 7 to 13 million acres and is now about 50% of the row-cropped acres in the state.

Male weaning rats were fed for 11 weeks on diets containing 2% corn oil and 13% various fats: MCT, corn oil, tripalmitin or beef tallow, respectively. MCT feeding was clearly shown to increase...

متن کاملProduction of refusal factors by Fusarium strains on grains.
Corn fermented with strains of Fusarium culmorum NRRL 3288, F. poae NRRL 3287, F. moniliforme NRRL 3197, and F. nivale NRRL 3289 at 28 degrees C for 13 days was refused when fed to 30- to 60-pound (about 13.6- to 27.2-kg) swine.

متن کاملIdentification of T-2 toxin in moldy corn associated with a lethal toxicosis in dairy cattle.
Over a 5-month period during the winter of 1970-71, 20% of the lactating Holstein cows in a Wisconsin dairy herd died after prolonged ingestion of a diet containing 60% moldy corn infested with Fusarium tricinctum (2 x 10(5) propagules per g of moldy corn). Ethyl acetate extracts of the ground dried corn induced severe dermal reactions when applied to the skin of shaved 60-g albino rats and kil...
