Traditionally, anti-mycotoxin additives have been used for decades to prevent the harmful effects caused by mycotoxins.
Historically, one of the main concerns has been the possibility of negatively affecting performance parameters, through the absorption of essential nutrients, such as minerals and vitamins, within the gastrointestinal tract.
Under commercial conditions, there are cases of farms that have reported that some products are capable of affecting the ideal level of birds’ productivity.
To understand whether these products affect production efficiency per se, it is necessary to pay attention to the treatment used in the experimental design. This only contains the control feed without mycotoxins and the evaluated binder’s inclusion.
If any decrease is identified in daily body weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio and some other parameters, there is a chance that the additive is causing deleterious effects on the birds in the experiment.

In several tests carried out in different experimental research institutions located in different countries, their effects on the bone composition and skin pigmentation in broilers were evaluated. The last cited research measured the effect on performance parameters and bones in ducks.
