How an anti-mycotoxin blend impacts the health of nursery pigs

Researchers from Brazil and America looked at the impact of an anti-mycotoxin blend on the health of nursery pigs. They found that a mix of yeast, plant extract and soy lecithin can minimise the negative effects of aflatoxin contamination. Feed contamination with aflatoxin is a serious issue in pig farming which has led to the search for strategies to prevent or reduce this intoxication. Adsorbents (also known as mycotoxin binders and sequestering agents) reduce the absorption of mycotoxins a
