| mycotoxins and reproduction in domestic livestock. | molds are parasitic plants that are ubiquitous in livestock feedstuffs. even though molds themselves reduce the quality of grains, their synthesis of chemical substances termed mycotoxins causes the greatest monetary loss to the animal industry. five major mycotoxins that impair growth and reproductive efficiency in north america are aflatoxins, zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, ochratoxin, and ergot. aflatoxins are produced by aspergillus flavus and aspergillus parasiticus. consumption of grains con ... | 1992 | 1388147 |
| [ability of bentonite and natural zeolite to adsorb aflatoxin from liquid media]. | the adsorption of aflatoxin (af) b1, contained in aqueous medium or in synthetic medium left after the cultivation of aspergillus parasiticus nrrl 2999, was studied in two samples of bentonite, two samples of natural zeolite, and three kinds of adsorption coal added to water, to saline, to the blood serum of pigs, to the stomach fluid of pigs or rumen fluid of cows at concentrations of 5 to 50 mg per litre. unlike retinol-propionate and beta-carotene, af was readily adsorbable in vitro. the init ... | 1989 | 2547262 |

| aflatoxin-producing potential of aspergillus flavus and aspergillus parasiticus isolated from samples of smoked-dried meat. | over a period of three years 420 samples of various smoke-dried meat products, collected from individual households in different region of croatia were analysed for the presence of aflatoxigenic strains of the aspergillus flavus group. strains of a. flavus and a. parasiticus were present in 17.8% of the samples, and aflatoxin-producing ability was tested in 75 strains. in relation to sequential method of aflatoxin detection, 5 of 8 isolates were found in the first step (fluorescence in aflatoxin ... | 1995 | 7477245 |
