Case–Control Study of an Acute Aflatoxicosis Outbreak, Kenya, 2004
Environmental Health Perspectives, 2005 OBJECTIVES: During January-June 2004, an aflatoxicosis outbreak in eastern Kenya resulted in 317 cases and 125 deaths. We conducted a case-control study to identify risk factors for contamination of implicated maize and, for the first time, quantitated ...

SUMMARY Two episodes of acute aflatoxin poisoning in horses suggest that horses are susceptible to the toxic effects of this mycotoxin. Lesions associated with exposure to aflatoxin included encephalomalacia of cerebral hemispheres, fatty degeneration, necrosis, bile duct hyperplasia, fibrosis of the liver, fatty infiltration of the kidney, hemorrhagic

Poisoning with aflatoxin derived from mouldy bread was confirmed as the cause of death of one dog and was suspected as the cause of death of two other dogs on the same ration. A jaundiced carcass, firm bile-stained liver and haemorrhage into the gastro-intestinal tract were seen at autopsy.

SUMMARY In an episode of aflatoxicosis in feeder pigs, mortality was about 20%. Histopathologic findings characteristic of experimentally induced aflatoxicosis and the finding of aflatoxin B1 in the serum of pigs and in the corn-based feed confirmed the diagnosis. Aflatoxins B1 and B2 were found in the corn used to prepare the feed.

Aflatoxicosis in feedlot cattle
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1985Aflatoxicosis was diagnosed in lightweight feedlot cattle fed aflatoxin-contaminated cottonseed or gin trash. Clinical signs of hepatic damage and death were recorded for more than 200 of the 14,000 animals in a feedlot. Aflatoxin concentration in feedlot products fed to these cattle ranged from 96 to 1,700 ng/g.

Experimental equine aflatoxicosis
Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1982Abstract Adult male Shetland ponies, two per dose level, were given aflatoxin daily at levels of 0.3, 0.15, or 0.075 mg/kg. Signs of toxicosis included inappetence, depression, tremors, and terminal prostration. Deaths occurred at 12 and 16 days (0.3 mg/kg), 25 and 32 days (0.15 mg/kg), and 36 and 39 days (0.075 mg/kg).

Aflatoxicosis in feeder cattle
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1984Summary Aflatoxicosis was diagnosed as the cause of deaths in a group of crossbred feeder steers. Corn used in the ration being fed the steers was found to be contaminated with 1,500 ng of aflatoxin/g. Residues of the mycotoxin were detected in kidney tissue, and microscopic examination of liver sections revealed lesions typical of aflatoxicosis.

Aflatoxins are toxic, naturally occurring bisfuranocoumarin compounds produced by certain strains of the moulds Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus and A. nomius. Aflatoxin metabolites cause hepatotoxicity by reacting with macromolecules (including DNA and proteins) to cause fatty liver or liver necrosis.

SUMMARY The aflatoxins are a group of toxic metabolites that vary in their toxic and carcinogenic potential The susceptibility of different animal species to aflatoxins also appears to be variable. In all animal species studied, hepatic damage is the principal injury induced.

Aflatoxicosis is a noninfectious, noncontagious intoxication of an animal with a metabolite produced by a toxic mold. It is characterized in the acute phase by death loss and in the chronic cases by consumption decrease and death loss due to hepatic and renal insufficiency. Morbidity and mortality rates range from 5 to 55%. The etiological agents
