The impact of environmental variations (temperature and humidity) on Fusarium graminearum in broiler and pig feed (opens in new tab)

Fusarium-related mycotoxins are a major concern in livestock feeds due to their toxicity and potential for co-occurrence, which can cause additive or synergistic effects. This study investigated the influence of temperature and moisture content on fusarium-associated mycotoxin production in pig and broiler feeds. Feeds were inoculated with the Fusarium graminearum and incubated under controlled temperatures (30-40 °C) and moisture levels (8-15%), and mycotoxins including deoxynivalenol (DON),...
