Determinative Role of Exchange Cation and Charge Density of Smectites on their Adsorption Capacity and Affinity for Aflatoxin B1

Bentonite clays have long been used as additives in animal feed, aiming to improve pellet quality and prevent caking. Certain bentonites are also capable of deactivating aflatoxin B_(1) (AfB_(1)) in feed by adsorption, therefore, detoxifying the feed. However, a 10–fold difference in adsorption capa...
