Resumen:
Fumonisin B-1 (FB1) belongs to a group of mycotoxins produced by fungi of the genus Fusarium. In swine farms, the presence of the Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) causes significant economic losses in Mexican swine industry. In this experiment, the effect of the presence of FB1 and PRRSV was evaluated in five groups of 5 pigs; Group A: Negative control; Group B: Inoculated with 12 ppm of FB1 starting from day 0; Group C: Inoculated with PRRSV on day 8; Group D: Inoculated with PRRSV and 12 ppm of FB1 starting from day 0, respectively and Group E: Inoculated with 12 ppm of FB1 starting from day 0 and inoculated with PRRSV on day 8. Daily Weight Gain (DWG) and pathologic and histopathologic changes in the lung, liver and kidney were evaluated and the presence or absence of PRRSV was determined by the RT-PCR test in the groups treated. A negative slope effect was observed in weight gain in groups D and E (-0.103 and -0.37, respectively) indicating weight loss wi
