title: Aflatoxins B1, M1 and aflatoxicol in tissues and urine of calves receiving aflatoxin.
abstract: Liver and kidney tissues and urine from calves chronically or acutely intoxicated by aflatoxin were surveyed to detect the presence of aflatoxins B1, M1 (AFB1, AFM1) and aflatoxicol (AFL). Aflatoxins B1, M1, and aflatoxicol were not found in the liver, kidney or urine from animals intoxicated by chronic forms. However in a calf that received a single dose of 0.8 mg of AFB1/kg of live weight and one submitted to a single dose of 1.8 mg of AFB1/kg of live weight detectable levels of aflatoxins occurred in tissues and urine.
