About Mycotoxins
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by microfungi that cause disease and other health issues when in contact with humans and animals. Mycotoxins are a threat to the global food supply, with various factors such as temperature, rainfall, crop storage, crop transport, and time of harvest affecting the severity and species of mycotoxin present on agricultural crops. The primary mycotoxins affecting both feed and food supply include aflatoxins, zearalenone, fumonisins, ochratoxin A, trichothecene, and deoxynivalenol.
Mycotoxins Challenge
- Contaminated feeds typically contain multiple mycotoxins
- When more than one mycotoxin is present in feed, the clinical signs of mycotoxins are complex and diverse
- Synergistic interactions between different mycotoxins exaggerate the toxicity effect and presentation of symptoms
- Results are decreased performance and impaired immunity in animals
