Evaluation of Dry Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) Compounds in the Feed to Reduce Aflatoxin B₁(AFB₁) Residues and Toxicity to Japanese Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica)

Abstract

Celik, I<., Denli, M., Erturk, M., Ozturkcan, 0. and Doran, F. 2001. Evaluation of dry yeast (Saccltaromyces cerevisiae) compounds in the feed to reduce aflatoxin B, (AFB,) residues and toxicity to Japanese quails (Coturnis coturnix japonica). J. Apa. h i m . Res., 20: 245-250.To study the effects of dry yeast (Saccharomyces cerevkiae) as adsorbent when given a h t o x i n B, (AFBJ on the weight gain, feed consumption, feed conversion ratio, pathological alterations and serum parameters, 200 Japanese quail chicks were divided into 4groups in an experiment lasting 35 days, when the birds were slaughtered. The probiotic was given in group 1; 0.1 per cent with 100 pg ARBl added daily in the concentrate feed; 2nd group was given O.2per cent probiotic with 100 pg AI;TBI, 3rd group 100 pg AI;TB1 witlmut adsorbent and 4th group served as control. The livers and spleens were swollen cutd congested in group 1 and 3. Serum GOT, GPT and ALIC P were elevated in group 3 compared with the probiotic 'Present address: 246I<. Celik and coworkers (Saccharoinyces cerevisiae) groups (PcO. 01). No statistical differences mere fowid between groups irt serum AFP levels (P<O. 01).

Comparative Effects of Feeding Diets Containing Flavomycin, Bioteksin-L and Dry Yeast(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)on Broiler Performance

“…The difference may be fully explained by the occurrence of better gut microorganisms and pathogen reduction t h a n o t h e r s . P a n d a et al (2000) indicated t h a t feeding of antimicrobials and sub-therapeutic levels of antibiotics results in suppression of bacteria responsible for mild but unrecognizable infections, reduced production of growth depressing toxins from Celik et al, 2001) agree with this report showing good growth performance i n SC group. This study demonstrates that the flavomycin supplemented group of birds had the maximum weight gain followed by Saccharoinyces cerevisiae, control and bioteksin-L supplemented birds, respectively, at the end of 6 weeks of feeding.…”

“…These have been derived from the yeast cell wall, which exhibits a high degree of antigenicity mainly due to mannan and glucan components. Mannose sugars in the mannanoligosaccharides influence the immune system by stimulating the secretion of mannose-binding protein from liver which binds to the capsule of invading bacteria and triggers the complement fixation system (Celik et al, 2001). In agreement with previous studies (Maizzo et al, ZOOl), SC could be a natural growth promotor for broilers.…”

Evidence Based Phytopharmacological Potential of Herbal Extracts in Post-Ingestion Management of Mycotoxins in Animal Models

“…In addition, they were diminished products of aflatoxin in both the in vitro and in vivo studies [105]. The beneficial effects of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in management of aflatoxin B1 toxicity has also been evaluated in broilers [106] and Quails [107]. Bueno et al [108] has also demonstrated that Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an important and efficient micro-organism in aflatoxin B1 quenching.…”

Study on Effect of Diatomaceous Earth (DAE) on Afl atoxin-Induced DNA Damage in Visceral and Lymphoid Organs in Broiler Chicken

“…A variety of adsorbents such as bentonite [9], zeolite [10], hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate [11], Saccharomyces cerevisiae [12], and activated charcoal [13], have been successfully used in detoxifying afl atoxins in contaminated feeds [14,15]. Adsorbent compounds utilized to ameliorate and Lymphoid Organs in Broiler Chicken.…”
