Effect Of Fumonisin-Contaminated Corn On Growth Performance Of 20- To 60-Lb Nursery Pigs, Z. X. Rao, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. Calderon Cartagena Jan 2019

Effect Of Fumonisin-Contaminated Corn On Growth Performance Of 20- To 60-Lb Nursery Pigs, Z. X. Rao, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. Calderon Cartagena

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of feeding fumonisin (FUM) contaminated corn on growth performance of 20- to 60-lb nursery pigs. A total of 350 pigs (241 × 600; DNA, Columbus, NE; initially 19.6 lb) were used. Dietary treatments consisted of FUM-contaminated corn blended with relatively FUM-free corn to provide toxin (FB1 + FB2) of 7.2, 14.7, 21.9, 32.7, and 35.1 ppm. Experimental diets were fed in mash form for 28 d. There were 5 pigs per pen and 14 replicates per treatment. After weaning, pigs were fed common diets for 21 days before the experiment started. Then, …


Efficacy Of Commercial Products On Growth Performance Of Nursery Pigs Fed Diets With Fumonisin-Contaminated Corn, Z. X. Rao, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. Calderon Cartagena Jan 2019

Efficacy Of Commercial Products On Growth Performance Of Nursery Pigs Fed Diets With Fumonisin-Contaminated Corn, Z. X. Rao, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. Calderon Cartagena

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

Two experiments were conducted to determine the efficacy of various commercial products on growth performance of 20- to 50-lb nursery pigs fed diets high in fumonisin (FUM) concentration. In Exp. 1, a total of 350 pigs (241 × 600; DNA, Columbus, NE; initially 21.8 lb) were used. There were 5 pigs per pen and 14 replicates per treatment. After weaning, pigs were fed common diets for 21 d before the experiment started. Five dietary treatments were utilized and consisted of a positive control (low FUM), a negative control (approximately 50 to 60 ppm of FUM), and 3 other treatments as …


Effect Of Viligen™, Feed Form, And Storage Time On Fumonisin Concentrations In Corn, Z. X. Rao, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. Calderon Cartagena Jan 2019

Effect Of Viligen™, Feed Form, And Storage Time On Fumonisin Concentrations In Corn, Z. X. Rao, M. D. Tokach, S. S. Dritz, J. C. Woodworth, J. M. Derouchey, R. D. Goodband, H. Calderon Cartagena

This trial was conducted to determine the effect of ViligenTM(Alltech, Lexington, KY), feed form (meal or pelleted) and storage time (0, 3, or 7 d) on reducing the fumonisin (FUM) concentration in diets. Three 1,000-lb batches of feed were manufactured and used as replications. Each batch was divided into 500-lb batches with or without Viligen at 0.15% of the diet. Diets were then left as a meal or pelleted and stored at room temperature for 0, 3, and 7 d to determine the reduction of FUM over time. The result indicated that there were no main or interactive …
