Recent statutory changes involving animal drugs are expected to facilitate the therapeutic use of antibiotics in animal feeds in the United States of America. The use of antibiotics in animal feeds is controversial due to the potential development of resistant bacterial pathogens in food-producing animals which are exposed to the antibiotics and the resultant public health risk. Zoonotic micro-...

Phytase increases the bioavailability of phytate phosphorus in seed-based animal feeds and reduces the phosphorus pollution of animal waste. Since most animal feeds for pellets are heated up to 65-80 °C, the production of a thermostable structure for phytase can be useful. In this study, we sought to perform bioinformatics analysis of the upstream region and protein structure of fungal phytase ...

introduction about 500,000 species of fungi have been realized up to now. there are abundant fungi in air, soil and our environment. so the growth of them increases in the presence of air moisture and appropriate temperature. however saprophytic fungi have a wide distribution in nature, they are responsible for decomposition of organic materials and playing an important role in the biogeochemic...

Problem statements: Fumonisin was a mycotoxin produced mainly by fungi belonging to the genus Fusarium in various foods and feeds. They occurred worldwide and were found predominantly in corn and in corn-based animal feeds and also can be found in other crops. Contamination of food and feed with fumonisins has been implicated in and associated with a number of diseases in both livestock as well...
