Conteúdo: | Experimental studies revealed that goats are susceptible to aflatoxicosis, susceptibility being highest during early weeks of pregnancy. Clinical and histopathological observations are described. Adult goats consuming 0.017 mg aflatoxin daily for 8 wk recovered completely after withdrawal of aflatoxin. Aflatoxin is excreted in milk. Intake even at very low levels, insufficient to produce toxic symptoms, causes testicular degeneration. Males are more susceptive to aflatoxin than females. Focal hyperplasia of mammary epithelium was seen in the experimental goats. Histopathological changes were also noticed in the pituitary, thyroid and adrenal.
