A total of 106 samples of complete feeding mixtures for different categories of pigs were analyzed for presence of aflatoxin.? Feeding mixtures were composed of feed materials harvested during 2012 harvest season in Serbia. These samples included complete feeding mixtures for fattening pigs (49), lactating sows (19), pregnant sows (10) and piglets (28). Analysis was performed using ELISA test kits. The presence of aflatoxin was the highest in? complete feeding mixtures for fattening pigs (43%), somewhat lower in complete feeding mixtures for lactating sows (37%) while in?complete feeding mixtures for piglets was 25% of positive samples. Incidences ranged from 4 μg/kg to 66 μg/kg, both in complete feeding mixtures for fattening pigs.? Out of 10 samples of complete feeding mixtures for pregnant sows, aflatoxin was detected in only one sample in the concentration of 14 μg/kg. Contamination levels were above the maximum limit established by the European Union and Serbian regulation in 7 (14%) samples of complete feeding mixtures for fattening pigs, 4 (21%) samples of complete feeding mixtures for lactating sows and in 7 (25%) samples? of complete feeding mixtures for piglets. None of the samples of complete feeding mixtures for pregnant sows contained aflatoxin above the maximum permitted level.
