Effect of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and fumonisin B1 toxin on the lung in pigs

The authors examined the combined effect of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Mh) and fumonisin B1 (FB1) mycotoxin in pigs. Computed tomography (CT) was applied to follow up the pathological events in the lung. Piglets were infected with Mh, or treated with FB1, or both infected and treated with Mh and FB1....
