Main components of adsorbents selected were yeast cell extracts （Product A）, HSCAS （Product B）, and a mixture of yeast product and HSCAS （Product C）, respectively. A total of 240 broilers were assigned to eight treatments, and the effects of three types of adsorbents on growth performance and serum protein levels were evaluated. Results indicated that Product B had the highest in vitro affinity for AFB1, followed by Product C and Product A. Product B bound 97.69% of the AFB1 in solution in 10 min, and it remained over 96.03% in 60 min at pH 8.0. The B-AFB1 complex was much stronger than the other two complexes in vitro condition （P 〈 0.05）. Feed intake （FI） and average daily gain （ADG） decreased （P 〈 0.05） and feed gain ratio increased （P 〈0.05） in the treatment fed aflatoxin-contaminated feed versus treatment on the basal feed. Serum total protein （TP）, albumin （ALB）, and globulin （GLOB） levels were significantly decreased （P〈0.05）. Product B （0.15%） increased growth performance and improved serum protein levels, Product A and Product C were not as effective as Product B. Three adsorbents tested here had sufficient potential to AFBt in some extents and Product B could bind AFB1 more effectively than Product A and Product C. These results indicated that Product B could alleviate some of the AFBt toxic effect in broilers.展开更多
