Project description

Recent EFSA guidelines (2010) state that in vivo efficacy and safety of the currently available mycotoxin binders need to be studied. This project aims to identify and test the most common mycotoxin binders for possible interactions with orally administered veterinary drugs. Therefore, appropriate in vitro and in vivo tests will be executed.
