Abstract
Mycotoxicological monitoring of feeds in the Southern Federal District has been carried out. The widespread distribution of molds and considerable contamination of feeds by mycotoxins have been established. The effect of sterigmatocystin in concentrations below the minimum allowable level on blood morphological and biochemical indices of piglets and white rats has been studied.
