Extract

The yeast are plenty biological agents known by their participation in the elaboration of several products of human interest, obtained through biotechnological processes. In animal production, its use is recommended as a probiotic, which seems to improve the use of the foods and promote a better balance of the gut microflora. On the other hand, aflatoxicosis are diseases caused by intake of feed contaminated with aflatoxins, which can result in reduction of the animal performance and can promove serious problems of public health. Recently, research has indicated results encouraged to use yeast to control of aflatoxicosis. By these reasons, the aim of this work was to evaluate the capacity of different concentrations of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain Y1026, active, to reduce the induced damages by ingestion of different levels of aflatoxins under different times of exposition.
