Abstract

Twenty six samples of poultry rations were collected from private broiler poultry farms at Dakahlia and Sharkia provinces (thirty samples from each province) and analyzed for determination of aflatoxins and ochratoxin. The results indicated that all samples collected from Dakahlia province contain both aflatoxins and ochratoxin and 46% of these samples exceeded the permitted limit of each mycotoxin (5ppb). All the samples collected from Sharkia province contain ochratoxin and 92.4% contain aflatoxins and 7.4% of the samples were higher than the permitted limit for aflatoxins and 23% exceed the permitted limit for ochratoxin. The main conclusions of this study were that poultry rations may contain one or more mycotoxins at the same time which may have synergistic effects on production and resistance for diseases of broiler and may be considered hazards risk for the consumers especially these two mycotoxins which have decision of carcinogenic, immunosuppressive and teratogenic effects. So this synergistic effects must be considered during legalization for these mycotoxins in animal feed
