What is the cause of aflatoxin poisoning in pigs

Last Updated: 2024/11/06, Aflatoxin is a toxin produced by Aspergillus flavus, which is not easy to be destroyed in the external environment, and general heating and boiling can not decompose the toxin. (Bt toxin is decomposed only when heated from 268 degrees Celsius to 269 degrees Celsius). It is a hepatoma substance. Aspergillus flavus is widely distributed in nature and is easy to parasitic and propagate in corn, peanuts, rice, straw, cottonseed cake, bean cake, muffle skin and rice bran. And produce toxins, which make the general grain and its by-products mildew and deteriorate. At present,

Aflatoxin is a toxin produced by Aspergillus flavus, which is not easy to be destroyed in the external environment, and general heating and boiling can not decompose the toxin. (Bt toxin is decomposed only when heated from 268 degrees Celsius to 269 degrees Celsius). It is a hepatoma substance. Aspergillus flavus is widely distributed in nature and is easy to parasitic and propagate in corn, peanuts, rice, straw, cottonseed cake, bean cake, muffle skin and rice bran. And produce toxins, which make the general grain and its by-products mildew and deteriorate. At present, people in many parts of our country are used to feeding pigs with moldy and spoiled food or food that cannot be eaten by humans. Pigs will be poisoned if they eat these moldy and deteriorated feed. Because pig feed contains different grains and rich nutrients, improper storage will also be contaminated by Aspergillus flavus. Aspergillus flavus is the most suitable to reproduce at a temperature of 24 degrees Celsius to 30 degrees Celsius, and propagates fastest if it contains 20% to 30% moisture in grain and grain and oil processing by-products. Aspergillus flavus is one of the main molds in corn when the most suitable relative temperature for reproduction is 30 degrees Celsius. Aspergillus flavus is the main mold when corn is stored at room temperature when the water content of corn is 16.2% to 24.4%.
