Animal Feed Mycotoxin Solution
Mycotoxins present in animal feed can significantly impact various aspects of animal well-being, encompassing growth performance, health metrics, reproductive capabilities, product quality, and even human health risks. BioVenic has dedicated its efforts to combatting prevalent mycotoxins in animal feeds through a range of innovative solutions. These solutions encompass mycotoxin analysis, the formulation of feed additives targeting mycotoxins, and the development of biological detoxification processes for animal feeds. Leveraging cutting-edge analytical and testing technologies, genetic platforms, and animal modeling techniques, BioVenic collaborates with animal nutrition researchers to devise pioneering strategies aimed at mitigating the detrimental effects of mycotoxins on animals.
Animal Feed Mycotoxins
Recognized as a pivotal factor influencing feed safety, mycotoxins can emerge at various stages such as crop growth, post-harvest procedures, packaging, transportation, and storage. BioVenic's tailored mycotoxin solutions for animal feeds are adapted to combat different mycotoxin varieties. Our methodologies encompass mycotoxin analysis, in vitro and in vivo animal experiments focusing on health indicators, the cultivation of mycotoxin-degrading microorganisms and enzymes, and the advancement of mycotoxin biological detoxification procedures.
Aflatoxins (AFs) are notorious for their hepatotoxic, genotoxic, mutagenic, teratogenic, immunosuppressive, nephrotoxic, and cytotoxic properties, with natural AFs (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1, and AFG2) known to possess strong carcinogenic attributes. Our services extend to the thorough analysis, development, and evaluation of diverse aflatoxins controlling methods within animal feeds.
Ochratoxins, produced as secondary metabolites by Aspergillus and Penicillium species, pose health hazards through contaminating dietary products and animal feeds. Among these mycotoxins, Ochratoxin A (OTA) is notably potent. Our Feed Ochratoxins Solution integrates a variety of advanced techniques for ochratoxin analysis and devises enzymatic and microbial methods to mitigate the adverse impacts associated with ochratoxins.
Fungi such as Fusarium spp. that produce fumonisins are prevalent in nature, contaminating various food sources and posing significant health risks to both humans and animals. Our Feed Fumonisins solutions introduce innovative techniques to control and manage fumonisin contamination in animal feed effectively.
Trichothecenes, sesquiterpenoid mycotoxins synthesized by fungi belonging to the Hypocreales order, notably the Fusarium genus infecting cereal crops, present health hazards to consumers of contaminated grains. We offer a comprehensive solution for developing feed additives and biological detoxification processes through our integrated research platform to address the risks posed by trichothecenes to human and animal health.
Zearalenone, an estrogenic mycotoxin produced by Fusarium fungi among the plethora of identified mycotoxins, exerts estrogenic effects on various organisms. Contamination with zearalenone can result in significant economic losses and health risks to animals and humans. Our solutions focus on developing methodologies to mitigate the effects of zearalenone in animal feed, encompassing mycotoxin analysis, additive formulations, and the development of biological detoxification methods.
Patulin, a mycotoxin, induces various health risks such as nausea, lung congestion, epithelial cell degeneration, as well as carcinogenic, genotoxic, immunosuppressive, and teratogenic impacts. Our services include detecting patulin in diverse samples, creating feed additives, and employing biological techniques to mitigate the harmful effects on animals caused by patulin.
Our Sevices
Enhancing feed with additives for mycotoxin mitigation typically involves mycotoxin-adsorbing agents, mycotoxin-biotransforming agents, and antioxidant agents. Our solution for animal feed additive development targeting mycotoxins includes comprehensive services such as mycotoxin analysis, evaluation of adsorption efficacy, and in vitro and in vivo animal studies to assess the impact of these additives on mycotoxin levels. Additionally, we tailor solutions for the development of probiotics and enzyme additives aimed at diminishing the adverse effects of mycotoxins effectively.
Biological detoxification strategies for feed mycotoxins predominantly involve microbial fermentation and enzymatic processes. Through our Animal Feed Biological Processing Development platform, we facilitate the development of mycotoxin-neutralizing microbial strains or enzymes tailored for a spectrum of common mycotoxins found in animal feed. Our solutions extend to assessing the efficacy of feed fermentation or enzymatic treatments on mycotoxins. This approach aids in optimizing the treatment processes and conducting in vivo or in vitro assessments to enhance the biodegradation of feed mycotoxins effectively.
The evaluation of feed mycotoxins is pivotal in gauging feed quality and assessing the impact of additives or biodegradation interventions. Our array of solutions for mycotoxin analysis in animal feed encompasses a diverse range of immunoassays and chromatographic techniques. In addition to providing analytical services for feed mycotoxin analysis, we specialize in developing novel assays for mycotoxins to enhance the efficiency of mycotoxin testing in animal feed and other sample types.
- Animal Study Support
Validating the effectiveness of numerous feed mycotoxin degradation approaches necessitates assessment using animal models. We integrate multi-species in vitro and in vivo research models, alongside Animal Nutrition and Metabolism Analysis and Omics Solution in Animal Nutrition and Metabolism. These comprehensive solutions bolster animal studies concerning feed mycotoxins, enabling insights into the mechanisms of mycotoxin action in animals, the detoxification effects and mechanisms of feed additives, and the impacts of biologically detoxified feeds on animal applications.
