The T-2 and HT-2 toxins, the main metabolites of Fusarium poae , induce toxicity in broilers and accumulate in tissues. Consequently, during the breeding process of broilers, diets are frequently supplemented with physical adsorbents to protect birds against the toxicity induced by mycotoxins. In the present research, T-2 and HT-2 were produced in maize inoculated with F. poae . Mont, the strongest adsorbent based on in vitro adsorption ratios, was added to the contaminated diet. One-day-old chickens were randomly and equally divided into the following four groups: control diet group, Mont supplemented diet group, contaminated diet group and detoxification diet group. The experiment lasted for 42 days. Compared to the control group, the contaminated group showed significant decrease in body weight, feed intake and TP ( P < 0.05), and marked increase in FCR, ALP, AST and ALT activity, T-2/HT-2 residues in the tissues and the relative expressions of apoptosis-related mRNAs ( P < 0.05). Mont supplementation provided protection for the treated broilers in terms of performance, blood biochemistry, hepatic function, T-2/HT-2 residue of tissues and apoptosis. Therefore, Mont may be suitable as a detoxification agent for T-2/HT-2 in feed for broilers.

T-2 and HT-2 toxins belong to mycotoxins which are found in human foods and animal chow. We investigated the toxicity and oxidative stress induced by T-2/HT-2 in broilers and chicken hepatocytes. Maize cultures of Fusarium poae was fed to broilers for 42 d, and the physiological index, biochemical index and expression of mRNAs related to oxidative stress were analyzed. Chicken hepatocytes were treated with different levels of T-2/HT-2, and the following parameters were detected: cell viability, GSH and MDA concentration, LDH leakage , activities of ALT/AST, ROS , GSH-PX, SOD and CAT , and expression of mRNA related to oxidative stress. In vivo, high levels of mycotoxins (4 mg/kg T-2 and 0.667 mg/kg HT-2) in feed caused significant reductions in body weight, weight gain, and serum total protein, and significant increases in feed conversion ratio, ALP , ALT/AST activities, and expression of mRNA related to oxidative stress. In vitro, cells treated with T-2/HT-2 showed reductions of GSH concentration and significant increases in LDH leakage, ALT/AST ROS, GSH-PX, SOD and CAT activities, MDA concentration, and expression of mRNA related to oxidative stress. Consequently, F. poae culture material and T-2/HT-2 induced toxicity and oxidative stress in vivo and in vitro, respectively.

A stable and sensitive method has been developed for use in food and livestock product safety for the detection of mycotoxins. This newly developed method allows for the determination of T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin and diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS) in heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, Glandular stomach, muscular stomach, small intestine, muscle, bone and brain samples from broilers using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). The samples were initially extracted with ethyl acetate before being filtered through a 0.22 μm nylon syringe filter and subjected to chromatographic separation on a reversed-phase C18 (50 × 2.1 mm, 3 μm) column. A mobile phase composed of 0.1% acetic acid and 10 mM ammonium acetate in methanol and water was used in an assay of the levels of T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin and DAS. For the analysis of the target compounds, the mass spectrometer was operated under positive electrospray ionization conditions in the selected reaction monitoring mode. The limit of detection was in the range of 0.02–0.05 ng/g, whereas the limit of quantification was in the range of 0.08–0.15 ng/g. The extraction recoveries of spiked samples from the high, intermediate and low levels ranged from 58.5% to 110.5%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD (%)) values were less than 17.0%. The results of inter- and intra-day precision (RSD (%)) were within 14.7%. The results revealed that the present method could be successfully applied to the analysis of T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin and DAS in the real samples

T-2 and HT-2 widely found in food products can seriously affect human and animal health. In this study, sterilized corn was inoculated with F. poae and incubated to allow fungal growth before being examined via liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) to determine the concentrations of T-2/HT-2. Broilers were then fed with a mix of moldy corn and normal feed at different ratios to obtain different toxin doses. After 35 days, the contaminated feed was replaced with mycotoxin-free feed and the distribution and concentration of residual toxins in the tissues and organs of the chickens were examined at different time points. The results showed that at the time of feed replacement (0 h), T-2 residue was present at significantly higher concentrations in the lungs and small intestines than in other tissues ( P < 0.05). In addition, T-2 concentrations increased in a dose-dependent manner in the tissues of chickens in the low-, medium-, and high-dose groups; however, the differences in concentration between the groups were not statistically significant. The HT-2 content (0 h) in the livers and small intestines was significantly higher than that in other tissues ( P < 0.05). At 48 h post-feed replacement, the concentration of T-2 dropped below detectable levels in all tissues while HT-2 could still be detected at 192 h post-feed replacement. Thus, this study reveals the distribution and persistence of residual T-2/HT-2 from moldy feed in broilers, providing a reference for the detection of these toxins in animal-derived food products and a theoretical basis for formulating food-safety and quality standards.
