Fungal toxins are toxic chemical compounds produced by fungi that grow on fodder products.
Avlatoxins are the most important fungal toxins that cause direct damage to poultry and animals as well as the possibility of secretion in milk and eggs.
The exposure of the animal to impotoxic toxins leads to loss of appetite, lack of milk and meat production, gastrointestinal disorders, weakness of the immune system, neurological symptoms as well as abortion and death in the case of acute poisoning. The severity of the symptoms depends on the type and age of the animal, the dose exposed to the animal, Food for the animal.
In chickens, exposure to aflatoxin increases susceptibility to parasitic, bacterial and viral diseases due to weak immune system, low egg and meat production rate and increased rate of superiority.
There are many factors that affect the production of fungal toxins and aflatoxin toxins are produced from the metabolism of certain fungi such as Aspergillus spp., Penicillium spp and Rhizopus spp ,.
The growth of fungus and therefore the production of fungal toxins on fodder components is influenced by a variety of factors including the fungus strain, for example many strains that produce aflatoxins such as A. Flavus, A. parasiticus ,. Oryza, A. falvus A and other fungi, and some species that produce more than aflatoxins such as A. Rubber, A. Niger, A. wentii, Penicillium puberulum.
Aspergillus falvus is one of the fungus-causing fungi of aflatoxins.
The growth of fungus is also affected by the type of food in which the fungus grows, as well as the humidity, relative humidity, temperature, exposure time, and ventilation. The fungi are considered to be highly oxygenated organisms.
Cereal damage caused by some insects plays an important role in the increase and spread of pollution.
Fungal toxins can be divided according to the way they affect the body into several types. Some cause poisoning of cells, some cause vomiting, some cause immunosuppression, others cause cancer, others cause genetic changes, and some have similar effects to estrogen.
The toxins can also be divided according to the organ that affects them.
Some affect the liver, such as aflatoxins and other kidneys, such as acetaminophen, some of which affect the nervous system, other digestive system and skin.
And leave the toxins innate through the following:
1 - Reduce the available quantities of nutrients: The fungi produced by toxins consumption of some energy and protein from food
Some fungal toxins also reduce the consumption of fodder and some cause irritation of the digestive system and thus reduce the absorption of nutrients and some interfere with the normal metabolism of nutrients.
2 - Effect on the systems of some endocrine and non - deaf.
3 - inhibition of the immune system and this is done through tithe building protein inside the body and some of them poisoning the cells of white blood cells.
