Effect of deoxynivalenol (DON) mycotoxin on in vivo and in vitro porcine circovirus type 2 infections
Savard, Christian; Provost, Chantale; Alvarez, Fernando; Pinilla, Vicente; Music, Nedzad; Jacques, Mario; Gagnon, Carl A.; Chorfi, Younès (2015-04)Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium spp and is a common contaminant of grains in North America. Among farm animals, swine are the most susceptible to DON because it markedly reduces feed intake and decreases weight gain. Porcine ... -
Impact of deoxynivalenol (DON) contaminated feed on intestinal integrity and immune response in swine
Lessard, Martin; Savard, Christian; Deschene, Karine; Lauzon, Karoline; Pinilla, Vicente; Gagnon, Carl A.; Lapointe, Jérôme; Guay, Frédéric; Chorfi, Younès (Elsevier, 2015-02-17)This study was performed to characterize the influence of consuming DON naturally contaminated feeds on pig's intestinal immune defenses, antibody response and cellular immunity. Sixteen 4-week-old piglets were randomly allocated to two dietary treatments: ... -
In vitro and in vivo effects of deoxynivalenol (DON) mycotoxin on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in piglets
Pinilla, Vicente (2016-03-17)Les récoltes de céréales sont souvent contaminées par des moisissures qui se développent pendant la récolte et l’entreposage et produisent des métabolites secondaires appelés mycotoxines. Le porc est reconnu pour être sensible au déoxynivalénol (DON). ... -
In vitro effect of deoxynivalenol (DON) mycotoxin on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus replication
Savard, Christian; Pinilla, Vicente; Provost, Chantale; Segura, Mariela; Gagnon, Carl A.; Chorfi, Younès (2014-03)Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium spp. Among monogastric farm animals, swine are the most susceptible to DON as it markedly reduces feed intake and decreases weight gain. DON has also been shown to increase susceptibility to ... -
In vivo effect of deoxynivalenol (DON) naturally contaminated feed on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection
Savard, Christian; Pinilla, Vicente; Provost, Chantale; Gagnon, Carl A.; Chorfi, Younès (2014-12-05)Deoxynivalenol (DON), also known as vomitoxin, is the most prevalent type B trichothecene mycotoxin worldwide. Pigs show a great sensitivity to DON, and because of the high proportion of grains in their diets, they are frequently exposed to this ...
