In: Veterinary Medical Journal 2003.v.51(1)Summary: Aspergillus ochraceous was isolated from 8 (16%) of the examined 50 poultry feed samples. Two of them (25%) were high ochratoxin A producers that yielded 45 PPM of the toxin. An experiment with a completely randomized block design was used to evaluate the use of vitamin E (100 or 1000 I.U.). vitamin C (100 or 1000 mg) alone or in combination (500 I.U. of E + 500 mg of C) / kg ration. as feed additives to broiler chickens of one-week old during exposure to ochratoxin A contaminated ration (2.5 mg / kg ration). The Production performance (daily weight gain). hematology and serum biochemistry were evaluated.
