Deoxynivalenol (DON), a prevalent and highly toxic mycotoxin in animal feed, poses significant risks to livestock health and productivity.This study evaluates the effectiveness of iron-manganese Originals Ribbed Tank oxide (Fe/Mn oxides) in degrading DON.The DON degradation rate of Fe/Mn oxide reached 98.

46 % in a controlled solution under specific conditions (0.2 % concentration, 37–85 °C, pH 6–7, 1-minute reaction time).When applied to actual feed, it reduced DON levels by approximately 49.

3 % and remained stable in simulated gastrointestinal environments of weaned piglets.A 28-day trial involving 48 weaned piglets assessed the impacts of Fe/Mn oxides on health and growth.Results indicated that piglets consuming contaminated feed without the treatment exhibited reduced growth and compromised gut integrity, which were significantly mitigated by the addition of Fe/Mn oxides.

Therefore, TriStar Pump Parts Fe/Mn oxides effectively reduce DON in feed and alleviate adverse health effects in piglets, making them a viable option to enhance safety and performance in mycotoxin-prone environments.
