Comparison of the toxic effects of different mycotoxins on porcine and mouse oocyte meiosis
20 Jun 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), deoxynivalenol (DON), HT-2, ochratoxin A (OTA), zearalenone (ZEA) are the most common mycotoxins that are found in corn-based animal feed which have multiple toxic effects on animals and humans. Previous studies reported that these mycotoxins impaired mammalian oocyte quality. However, the effective concentrations of mycotoxins to animal oocytes were different. METHODS: In this...
