QUESTION

Goitrogens are usually found in which of the following feed ingredient?

OPTIONS

(A) Groundnut Cake
(B) Soybean Cake
(C) Mustard Cake
(D) All of these

ANSWER

(C) Mustard Cake

EXPLANATION

Mustard cake contains glucosinolates and their breakdown products, which have goitrogenic effects and can interfere with thyroid function. Groundnut cake is mainly associated with aflatoxin, while soybean cake is better known for trypsin inhibitors and related antinutritional factors, so 'All' is incorrect.
