According to FutureWise analysis the market for aflatoxicosis treatment in 2023 is US$ 0.28 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 0.38 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 4%.
Aflatoxicosis is the most commonly occurring and economically important mycotoxin, with the production of rich hepatotoxins on animal feed both on the field and storage during high temperatures, and it often occurs concurrent with insect damage to crops. Aspergillus flavus and parasiticus invade corn, cottonseed, peanuts, and nuts can quickly produce high levels of aflatoxins, with aflatoxin B1 considered the most toxic. Aflatoxicosis is metabolized to an epoxide in the liver that binds to macromolecules, including nucleic acids. The harmful effect can include carcinogenesis, immunosuppression, mutagenesis, teratogenesis, and liver damage with reduced protein synthesis. Patients can display poor growth rate, feed inappetence, depression, unthriftiness, bleeding, icterus, and death.
Diagnosis is based on liver lesions, clinical signs, and laboratory detection of aflatoxicosis in the feed or milk. Treatment includes directly ceasing the aflatoxin-contaminated feed and providing livestock with a quality diet with appropriate protein, vitamins, and trace minerals. Antimicrobial therapy for infectious procedures and improved biosecurity should be considered if animals are immunosuppressed. No specialized antidote is obtained. Control of aflatoxicosis during the widespread contamination in crops needs avoiding aflatoxin-contaminated feed and using analytical testing for aflatoxins in feed batches. While using mycotoxin binders in feed is not approved by the U.S. FDA, it is generally recognized that hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicates effectively bind aflatoxin in the feed and reduce absorption in the gut. Hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicates (HSCAs) can reduce, but not eliminate, contamination of aflatoxin M1 in the milk of dairy animals fed aflatoxin-contaminated feed. The recovery can be extended, leading to a delayed or diminished return to production status.
