Abstract
The harmful effects of fungi in sorghum silage are an important matter in many countries with hot climates. This culture is very susceptible to fungal contamination and both the storage and processing of this substrate are ideal for the development of fungi there are able to produce mycotoxins. The contamination with mycotoxins, secondary products of the metabolism of certain fungi, that promotes risks to both animal and human health, causes numerous losses for the country. The aim of this study was to identify the toxicogenic fungi present in sorghum silage for beef cattle consumption and determine the occurrence of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in the same substrate. A total of 60 pre-fermented and 60 post-fermented samples of sorghum silage were analyzed....
