The cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae can bind mycotoxins in vitro, but there is scarce information on whether this property decreases the absorption of mycotoxins in vivo. The effect of a yeast cell wall preparation (YCW) on toxicokinetics and balance excretion (urine and faeces) of aflatoxin B(1) (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) was tested in rats after oral administration of each toxin. The (3)H-labelled mycotoxins were used at low doses. Co-administration of YCW with AFB1 decreased the extent, but not the rate, of absorption. Concurrently, radioactivity excreted in faeces increased by up to 55% when compared with controls, whilst the excretion in urine decreased (p < 0.05). The effect of YCW on OTA was less marked, although it increased radioactivity excretion in faeces (up to 16%; p < 0.05) it did not result in changes in urine and toxicokinetic parameters. The in vivo effect is in agreement with the reported in vitro binding ability for these toxins (AFB1 > OTA). In conclusion, these results indicate that YCW could be used to protect monogastric animals against exposure to low dietary levels of selected mycotoxins.
