Dealing with aflatoxin B1 dihydrodiol acute effects: Impact of aflatoxin B1-aldehyde reductase enzyme activity in poultry species tolerant to AFB1 toxic effects.

Aflatoxin B1 aldehyde reductase (AFAR) enzyme activity has been associated to a higher resistance to the aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) toxicity in ethoxyquin-fed rats. However, no studies about AFAR activity and its relationship with tolerance to AFB1 have been conducted in poultry. To determine the role of A...
