Abstract

Swine and rats demonstrated the same response factor (i.e., the average amount of corn amended with trichothecenes consumed by animals per the average amount of uncontaminated corn consumed by animals) for consumption of corn amended with 40 ppm of either T-2 toxin or diacetoxyscirpenol Rat response factor for corn containing 40 ppm of vomitoxin was 1.8 times more than corn containing either T-2 toxin or diacetoxyscirpenol at 40 ppm. For the corn containing 40 ppm of vomitoxin, swine response factor was 1.8 times greater than rat response factor.
