dc.description.abstractExperimental mycotoxicoses were induced singly and in combination in 48 newly hatched turkey poults (Meleagridisgallopavo - Beltsville small white) for a period of 0 to 13 weeks by feeding diets containing 100 ppb AF and 1 ppm T-2 toxin. The AF was produced on rice while T-2 toxin was produced on corn grits using Aspergillus parasiticus NRRL 2999 and Fusarium sporotrichioides respectively. The AF and T-2 toxin from cultures were quantified by TLC. Weighed amounts of powdered culture material was incorporated into the toxin free diet and were adjusted to 100 ppb AF and 1 ppm T-2 toxin. A detailed post mortem was conducted on sacrificed bird during the 7th week and 13th week of experimental period. Weights of liver, spleen and bursa of Fabricius and gross lesions were recorded. Only relative spleen weights significantly (P<0.05) decreased in the toxin treated groups except T-2 when compared to the control. The AF fed birds during the 7th and 13th week revealed enlarged and congested, pale or patchy yellowish discoloured liver and translucent gall bladder distended with thin, light green bile. The kidneys were mildly congested.en_US
