The aim of this study was to evaluate effects of modified glucomannan (Mycosorb(R)) on plasma chemistry of broiler chicks after deoxynivalenol (DON) inclusion in the diet from hatching to 6 weeks of age. On the results obtained, it was concluded that the dietary inclusion of deoxynivalenol resulted in changes of plasma indices in growing broiler chickens. Supplementation of modified of glucomannan (Mycosorb(R)) counteracted most of the plasma parameter alterations caused by dietary inclusion of deoxynivalenol in growing broiler chickens.
