  23. Water-soluble substances of wheat: a potential preventer of aflatoxin B1-induced liver damage in broilers

    • Poultry Science

    • ABSTRACTAflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is very harmful for broiler production and public health. The water-soluble castoff in gluten production, i.e., the water-soluble substances of wheat (WSW) that contains 14% pentosan has positive effect on animal nutrient absorption, immunity, and antioxidation. Our study aims to investigate the preventive effects of WSW against AFB1-induced broiler liver injury.
