Mycotoxin binders are readily mixed in feeds to prevent uptake of mycotoxins by the animal. Concerns were raised for nonspecific binding with orally administered veterinary drugs by the European Food Safety Authority in 2010. This paper describes the screening for in vitro adsorption of doxycycline-a broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic-to six different binders that were able to bind >75% of the doxycycline. Next, an in vivo pharmacokinetic interaction study of doxycycline with two of the binders, which demonstrated significant in vitro binding, was performed in broiler chickens using an oral bolus model. It was shown that two montmorillonite-based binders were able to lower the area under the plasma concentration-time curve of doxycycline by >60% compared to the control group. These results may indicate a possible risk for reduced efficacy of doxycycline when used concomitantly with montmorillonite-based mycotoxin binders.

Aflatoxins in food and feed with prominent toxic effects have jeopardized public health for decades. This investigation intends to explore synthesized SDS-modified chitosan as new generation of binder for removal of aflatoxin using a straightforward ionic cross-linking approach. The primary objective of this technique was to enhance affinity and adsorption capability of SDSCS towards aflatoxins.

Aflatoxins (AF), fungal metabolites, can contaminate feed in favorable environments, posing health risks to humans and animals. Dairy cows exposed to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) excrete its metabolite, aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), in milk, compromising its safety. The current study examined the use of an AF binder in dairy feed concentrates on farms in Rwanda to mitigate AFM1 in milk.

Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on finding bacteria that can break down common mycotoxins, specifically type A trichothecenes, found in stored cereal grains, using facultative anaerobe bacteria from chicken digestive systems.
- - Researchers produced these mycotoxins in the lab and tested a bacterial consortium, discovering that neosolaniol was degraded the most effectively, followed by HT-2 and T-2 toxins.
- - The study identified specific bacillus-shaped, Gram-positive bacteria that demonstrated strong capabilities to both inactivate and bind these mycotoxins, marking a significant advancement in bioremediation strategies for multiple type A trichothecenes.

Article Synopsis
- Climate change contributes to mycotoxicosis outbreaks by creating conditions for droughts and increased fungal growth, leading to higher mycotoxin exposure.
- A promising detoxification method involves using clay-based materials that can bind mycotoxins in the gastrointestinal tract, reducing their absorption and toxicity.
- The study found that chlorophyll-amended montmorillonite clay (CMCH) effectively binds and detoxifies ochratoxin A (OTA), outperforming other sorbents, and demonstrated significant toxicity reduction in organisms exposed to OTA.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of adding hydroalcoholic extracts of saffron petals, yeast cell walls, and bentonite to the diets of broiler chickens contaminated with aflatoxin B and ochratoxin A.
- Results show that incorporating these additives improves the growth and health of the chickens by enhancing carcass weight, lowering harmful enzyme levels, and improving small intestine morphology compared to those on a positive control diet.
- The findings suggest that saffron petal extract, especially at 750 mg/kg, is effective in mitigating the negative effects of these toxins in broiler diets.
