Research Abstract |
In order to find metabolic detoxification by micro-organisms in soil of Thailand, where heavy contamination with mycotoxins has been observed, bacteria and fungi isolated from Cassava farms in Thailand were examined for their activities to metabolize aflatoxin, ochratoxin A and zearalenone. The result demonstrated some bacteria and fungi to metabolize aflatoxin B1 and ochratoxin A. Feces of horse, sheep and pig living in the central region of Thailand, and anaerobic bacteria isolated from the feces, were also examined for their metabolic activities toward mycotoxins, but clear metabolism was not found. With regard to animal tissues, a possible conversion of aflatoxin B2 to B1 by the liver tissues from various animals was suggested. Also tissues of various organs of goat were demonstrated to metabolize zearalenone to alpha-and beta-zearalenols.
