Out of 80 diseased goats, aflatoxin was detected in serum of 50% of them. Examination of 600 samples of feed utilized by these animals yielded aflatoxin and toxigenic A. flavus in 52.2% of the samples. Experimental induction of aflatoxicosis in goats gave similar symptoms which were observed in field animals. Biochemical and haematological examinations of blood of experimentally intoxicated goats revealed significant alteration in most of the examined values including liver and kidney function tests, total protein, albumin and globulin. Histopathological examination of internal organs of these animals showed obvious changes in all tissues particularly in the liver and kidney.
