Abstract Diabetes mellitus is one of the chronic metabolic diseases whose control remains a challenge. Its increased incidence was mainly attributed to environmental contamination. Therefore, this study aims investigate effect feeding clover microgreen (CM) on diabetes model with or without aflatoxin exposure. Rats were distributed into 8 groups. G1 group. G2 fed CM. G3 administered orally. G4 ...

introduction the occurrence of mycotoxins in foods and feeds is a problem of major concern in all over the world. profitability of poultry production can be greatly affected due to the frequency of feed contamination and the detrimental effects of these toxins on the performance. aflatoxins, a group of closely related and biologically active mycotoxins, are produced by strains of aspergillus fl...

A study was conducted with an objective to compare the efficacy of bentonite (BT), Spirulina platensis (SP) and glucomannan mycotoxin binders (GMA) on aflatoxicosis in broiler breeders. Three levels of AF, three binders and combination of different levels of AF with binders were evaluated. The AF fed at the levels of 300, 400 and 500ppb for three periods, each with duration of three weeks in br...

Hepatic disease is usual in large animals. Increases in serum hepatic enzymes and total bile acid concentration may indicate hepatic dysfunction, insult, disease, or failure. While liver disease is particularlyusual in foals, progression to liver failure isn't.Diseases that frequently result in hepatic failure in horses include Theiler's disease, Tyzzer's disease, pyrrolizidine alkaloid toxicos...

Received: July 5, 2005 Accepted: August 19, 2005 Aflatoxins are toxic by-products produced by the fungi Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. These toxins can infect a variety of grains and oilseeds, but most often occur in corn, the predominant feed grain in North America. Four principle metabolites have been characterized and identified as aflatoxins B1, G1, B2, and G2, but the B1 m...
