Harm of Fumonisins to Pig Breeding and Its Detoxification Strategies
Discussions on the mechanism of mycotoxin damage are conducive to finding appropriate de-toxification strategies and solving the problem of mycotoxin pollution in feed.The top three mycotoxin threats in pig production are aflatoxins,deoxynivalenol and fumonisins.Based on a brief review of the defi-nition,limit level and damage to environment and economy in terms of mycotoxin including fumonisins,the paper specifically introduces the negative impact of fumonisins on pig breeding,and summarizes the de-toxification measures against fumonisins pollution in pig feed.Recent researches show that in addition to the widely used inorganic adsorbents,yeast,bacteria,enzyme preparations and plant extracts also have great potential in dealing with fumonisins pollution.
