Successfully confronting the fumonisin surge

While difficult to detect in pigs, fumonisins often pose a threat to pigs globally. Where binders fall short, a mitigation technique known as biotransformation offers a field-tested, proven solution. Due to their gastrointestinal and immunosuppressive effects, fumonisins can seriously compromise swine performance. Fumonisin contamination in swine is difficult to detect mainly because it tends to occur at subclinical levels – necessitating measurement of the sphinganine/ sphingosine (Sa/So) ra
