[Chemical composition of the meat from chickens treated with aflatoxin B1].
Studies were carried out to establish the effect of aflatoxin B1 on some qualitative indices of poultry meat. It was found that the use of aflatoxin B1 led to a decrease in the live weight as well as to changes in the chemical composition of meat-increase in the water content, decrease in the amount of fats and proteins, and drop of its biologic value. Most clearly manifested were the changes when aflatoxin B1 was applied at the rate of 37.5 micrograms daily, in the course of 30 days. It was also found that withdrawal periods of 7 days did not contribute to the elimination of the changes in the chemical composition of poultry meat.
