Abstract:Ochratoxin A is a foreign substance of natural origin. It can be found in a wide range of commodities, including animal feed.

In this study, the incidence of ochratoxin A in a complete feed for broilers (n = 25) and pigs (n = 6) was determined. Ochratoxin A was detected in one sample of pigs feed (16.67 %) and its concentration was 1.221 µg.kg−1. This mycotoxin was not detected in the broiler feed… Show more
