The objective of the study was to determine the effect of dietary aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in growing male buffaloes in terms of feed intake, hematological and serum biochemical parameters. Thirty six bovine growing male buffaloes between 6 months to 12 months of age were divided into four groups to receive diet having no AFB1, 0.6mg/kg, 0.8mg/kg and 1.0mg/kg AFB1 of feed per animal per day for 28 days. The results indicate that the average daily feed intake of AFB1-treated growing male buffaloes significantly declined (P > 0.05) compared with the control. Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and creatinine were significantly increased (P > 0.05) in response to AFB1, However change in blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels was non-significant values of all hematological parameters decreased significantly (P > 0.05) in1.0mg/kg AFB1 group as compared to other groups after day 14 onward.

Abstract Background: Cottonseed meal (CSM), a relatively rich source of protein and amino acids, is used as an inexpensive alternative to soybean meal (SBM) in poultry diets. Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of CSM on growth performance, liver redox status, and serum biochemical parameters in goslings. In experiment 1, 300 1-d-old male goslings were randomly divided into 5 groups (10 goslings/replicate, 6 replicates/group) and subjected to a 28-d experiment. In experiment 2, 240 28-d-old male goslings were randomly divided into 5 groups (8 goslings/replicate, 6 replicates/group) and subjected to a 35-d experiment. Five isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets were formulated to produce diets in which 0% (control), 25% (CSM25), 50% (CSM50), 75% (CSM75), and 100% (CSM100) of protein from SBM was replaced by protein from CSM.Results: In experiment 1, dietary CSM was associated with linear decreases in body weight, average daily feed intake and average daily gain and linear increases in the feed-to-gain ratio and mortality from 1 to 28 d of age (P < 0.05). Increased dietary CSM was associated with linear decreases in the hydroxyl radical scavenging ability and superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities in the liver (P < 0.05). Dietary CSM was associated with linear decreases in serum total protein, albumin, and globulin concentrations and linear increases in serum uric acid concentrations (P < 0.05). In experiment 2, the growth performance from 29 to 63 d, redox status indicators (except for malondialdehyde [MDA]) in the liver, and serum biochemical parameters at d 63 were not affected by dietary CSM concentrations (P > 0.05). The MDA content in the liver in the CSM100 group was lower than those in the other four groups (P < 0.05).Conclusion: CSM in gosling diets should not exceed 7.08% in the early growth stage (d 1 to 28), but it can be increased to 22.65% from d 29 to 63. A high concentration of CSM may reduce growth performance in 1- to 28-d-old goslings due to decreases in feed intake, liver metabolism and antioxidant capacity.
