The impact of an anti-mycotoxin blend on the health of nursery pigs

Researchers investigated the impact of an anti-mycotoxin blend and found that a mix of yeast, plant extract and soy lecithin can minimise the negative effects of aflatoxin contamination in nursery pigs. 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 and promote their excretion through ur
