Aflatoxin levels were determined by ELISA in 18 dog and 20 horse feed samples, collected from different firms in Turkey, from June 2000 to June 2001. The minimum and maximum levels of total aflatoxin in the dog and horse feeds were <1.75-20 micro g/kg and <1.75-14 micro g/kg, respectively. Three of the eighteen dog feed samples (16.7%) and 2 of 20 horse feed samples (10%) exceeded the Turkish tolerance limit of 10 micro g/kg in food or feed.
