Clay-based toxin binders are generally indicated in modern livestock feeds as a preventive measure against multiple mycotoxins. Kindly throw light on the mechanism of action - why and how these are effective only under in vivo condition but not in vitro?
The paper by Diaz and Smith: Mycotoxin sequestering agents: practical tools for neutralisation of mycotoxins in : The mycotoxin Blue Book, Nottingham University Press 2005 pp 323-339 might be of help to you.

Good luck
Dear Dr Khalid,
Thank you for providing a great review on mycotoxin curbing strategies @ farm.

Dear Mr. Mahesh The matter is that the сlay-based toxin binders, due to their physicochemical properties, are able to bind only certain polar (Log Pow
Dear Dr Alexamdr,
Thank you very much for clarifying action of clay on polar & non-polar mycotoxins.
Regards,
Mahesh
