Abstract

The use of Clay(Hydrated Sodium Calcium Alminosilicate, HSCAS)in feeds for the purpose of detoxifying aflatoxin and improving the productivity of livestock ingesting it was studied. Since it has been demonstrated that the Clay adsorbs aflatoxin chemically in vitro, the study aimed at confirming the efficacy of Clay added to feeds was conducted in various livestock fed with the aflatoxin-contaminated feeds. As a result, it has been confirmed that the Clay reduces the effect of this toxin on livestock and improves the growth of livestock, resulting in decreases in the transition of this toxin into milk.
