Abstract
AFLATOXIN B1, B2 and M were detected in liver, gall bladder, spleen, heart, muscle and kidney of growing swine when protein and protein-free portions of the diet were separately fed. The protein portion contained a peanut meal naturally contaminated with aflatoxins. A mixture of the protein and protein-free portions resulted in no detectable residue in the one pig autopsied. No adverse effects on live weight gains and gain/feed were visible by this feeding procedure, as compared to the separate feeding technique. Copyright © 1975. American Society of Animal Science .
