Mycotoxins, when ingested along with feed can cause metabolic and physiological disorders in poultry i.e. impaired tissue integrity-capillary haemorrhage, disturbed Ca & VitD3 metabolism leading to fragile bones and poor egg shell quality, immuno suppression, failure of vaccines and drugs, increased susceptibility to infection and disease and poor utilization of nutrients particularly protein and fats.
