Ineffectiveness of different adsorbents in alleviation of oral lesions induced by feeding T-2 toxin in broiler chickens

Abstract EN

One hundred and forty one-day-old-male broiler chicks (Ross), were divided into 7 groups (20 chicks/group) and fed T-2 toxin alone or with five different types of adsorbents; Montmorillonite 0.

5 %, Vermiculite 0.

5 %, Pigacine 0.

5 %, Gezilgure 0.

5 %; and the resin Perlite 0.

5 %.

Gross and microscopic examinations reveal that all adsorbents used were unable to alleviate the oral lesions induced by T-2 toxin in broiler chickens.
