This study evaluates the potential of ozonated corn starch (OCS) and ultrasonicated ozonated corn starch (USOCS) as adsorbents for patulin removal in buffer solutions. The results indicated that dual modification significantly altered the starch's structure, introducing functional groups such as carbonyl and carboxyl groups, and increasing its surface area. These modifications led to enhanced patulin adsorption capacity.

Zearalenone (ZEA), produced by Fusarium, is a fungal toxin commonly found in maize, wheat, and other cereals. ZEA has the ability to bind to estrogen receptors of humans and animals and is an environmental endocrine disruptor that may interfere with glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. In this study, we first investigated the effects of chronic exposure to low doses of ZEA with a high-fat-diet (HFD) in obese C57BL/6 J mice.

The aim of the research was to determine the impact of the use of biostimulators and different nitrogen doses on the yield quality of two varieties of corn grown for grain. The field experiment was carried out in 2015-2017 on an individual farm located in north-eastern Poland (52°30'N and 22°26'E). The following factors were examined in the experiment: group I-two corn varieties: PR38N86 (280 FAO); P8400 (240 FAO) group II-four doses of nitrogen fertilization: control treatment-without nitrogen application (0 kg·ha-1 N) nitrogen doses-80 kg·ha-1 N, 120 kg·ha-1 N, 160 kg·ha-1 N, group III-four types of biostimulators used: (1) control treatment-without the use of a biostimulator, (2) biostimulator containing sodium ortho-nitrophenol, sodium para-nitrophenol, 5-nitroguaiacol sodium, (3) biostimulator containing potassium para-nitrophenolate, potassium ortho-nitrophenolate, potassium 5-nitrovacollate, (4) biostimulator containing molybdenum, zinc.

To begin formulating broiler diets on a digestible calcium (Ca) basis, robust Ca digestibility values for ingredients and factors affecting this digestibility are needed. This study had three main objectives: (1) determine the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of Ca and phosphorus (P) for seven plant-based feed ingredients in broilers, (2) assess the impact of phytate source on SID Ca from limestone (LS), and (3) evaluate the effect of phytase on SID Ca and P for the different ingredients. Two experiments were conducted to satisfy these objectives.
