Eqüine leukoencephalomalacia and Fumonisin B
This article describes clinical, etiologic and pathologic diagnosis of an outbreak of equine leukoencephalomalacia. Two samples of the corn consumed by the affected horses contained fumonisin B 1 at levels of 46 and 53 μg/g and Fusarium moniliforme, a good in vitro mycotoxin producer.
متن کاملGenotyping of Fusarium verticillioides strains producing fumonisin B1 in feed associated with animal health problems
Fusarium verticillioides (F. verticillioides) is not only a primary pathogen of maize, but also can causedisease in other crops such as sorghum. Pathogenicity is related to mycotoxin production such as fumonisin.In the present study, 24 isolates of F. verticillioides, which were previously identified by phenotype basedmethods, were re-identified using restriction fragment length polymorphism (R...
متن کاملAmeliorative Potential of Vitamins on Haematological and Biochemical Profiles of Clarias gariepinus Fed Diets Contaminated with Fumonisin B1
Ameliorative potential of antioxidants –vitamins C and E on blood profile of Clarias gariepinus fed diets contaminated with varied levels of fumonisin B1 (FB1) was evaluated. Fusarium cultured maize containing FB1 were used to formulate diets containing approximately 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 mg FB1/kg constituting diets 2, 3, and 4, respectively and other nine diets constituting Diets 5 - 13 with the ...

متن کاملLeukoencephalomalacia in two horses induced by oral dosing of fumonisin B1.
Leukoencephalomalacia (LEM) was induced by the oral administration of fumonisin B1 (FB1) to 2 horses: a filly received 59.5 mg/kg of a 50% preparation of FB1, administered in 21 doses of 1.25-4 mg/kg over 33 days; a colt, 44.3 mg/kg of 95% pure FB1 in 20 doses of 1-4 mg/kg in 29 days. Both animals developed nervous signs such as apathy, changes in temperament, inco-ordination, walking into obje...
