Approval code: CAU20151028-2; Date: 28 October 2015). A total of 300 one-day-old male Arbor Acre broiler chickens had been obtained from a commercial firm (Beijing Huadu Yukou Poultry Co., Ltd., Beijing, China). Birds with equivalent body weights (40.0 1.0 g) had been randomly assigned to four therapies with 5 replicate pens of 15 birds per pen. The diets for remedies were: Control (the basal diets containing 20 normal peanut meal within the starter and 18 inside the finisher period, devoid of any mycotoxins); AFB1 (moldy peanut meal naturally contaminated with 121.7 /kg AFB1 substituting for all the typical peanut meal within the basal diet regime); SSGL (basal diet program received 200 mg/kg of SSGL); AFB1 +SSGL (AFB1 eating plan supplemented with 200 mg/kg of SSGL). The contents of mycotoxins (AFB1 , AFB2 , AFG1 , AFG2 , deoxynivalenol (DON), zearalenone (ZEA) and ochratoxin (OTA)) in basal diet and AFB1 -contaiminated diets were tested with HPLC (Shimadzu LC-10 AT, Shimadzu, Tokyo, Japan) approach [25,58]. Briefly, 25 g in the milled samples were mixedToxins 2016, 8,8 ofwith 80 mL of methanol-water (80:20 v/v) for aflatoxins; water for DON; acetonitrile-water (70:30 v/v) for ZEA; methanol-water (60:40 v/v) for OTA, the mixtures had been shaken for 2 h. The extracts have been filtered, as well as the filtrate was cleaned up via an immunoaffinity column (Vicam, Milford, MA, USA) prior to HPLC determination. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) had been: 0.ten and 0.50 /kg for AFB1 ; 0.08 and 0.25 /kg for AFB2 ; 0.15 and 0.50 /kg for AFG1 ; 0.10 and 0.50 /kg for AFG2 ; 1.00 and 5.00 /kg for ZEA; 10.00 and 50.00 /kg for DON; 0.21 and 0.60 /kg for OTA, respectively. The final contents of AFB1 in diets received moldy peanut meal (AFB1 and AFB1 +SSGL groups) have been 25.0 1.two /kg in starter period and 22.five 1.1 /kg in finisher period; the other mycotoxins have been determined to become at concentrations beneath detection limits. Hardly any aflatoxins or other mycotoxins were found (under detection limits) in basal diets. The formulation in the basal diets are presented in Table five, all critical nutrients in the basal diet plan met NRC (1994) [59]. The feeding trial period lasted for 44 days.Table five.

The rearing technique was designed as flooring rearing. All birds have been raised in weird-floored pens (one hundred one hundred 60 cm) in an environmentally controlled area with continuous light. The temperature was maintained at 357 C (.
