One of these organs is the liver. The liver or liver is the largest organ in the body. This Organ has a very vital function in supporting the process of absorption and metabolism of nutrients from the digestive organs. Almost all nutrients, chemicals, including toxin components in feed and chemical compounds in drugs absorbed by the intestinal tract will subsequently be processed in the liver. The liver has an important and complex role in metabolic processes. According to Widianingsih (2000), the liver plays a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, iron, bile secretion that can help absorb fat, detoxification function, red blood cell formation and metabolism and storage of vitamins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The liver is located in the upper abdominal cavity which will be clearly visible at the time of carcass surgery. The liver consists of two large lobes, located on the arch of the duodenum and gizzard (<em>gizzard<\/em>). Normally chicken liver is reddish brown, has a soft consistency and the edges or sides look sharp or not swollen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"446\" height=\"339\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-81247\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-2.png 446w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-2-300x228.png 300w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-2-16x12.png 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 446px) 100vw, 446px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Simamora (2001), chicken liver has a relatively large size, the weight of chicken liver ranges from 30-50 grams. The liver of newly hatched chickens is yellowish brown. Healthy heart on DOC (<em>day old chick<\/em>) are yellowish brown until 10 days of age due to the absorption of the yolk content. The color of this liver will turn reddish brown after about two weeks of age. The liver of an adult chicken is normally reddish brown to bright brown in color with a soft consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes Of Liver Damage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Changes in color, shape and consistency may indicate a liver disorder. Some factors that can cause liver disorders are infectious and non-infectious diseases.

Calcium deficiency also causes high energy and protein intake and stimulates fat accumulation. In this case, there is an increase in body weight and liver weight, which is accompanied by a decrease in egg production. Excessive consumption of feed also results in excessive nutrient intake and will be stored into fat. The body weight of laying hens should be considered because often the weight does not correspond to the age and phase of production, this is mainly due to the excess accumulation of fat in the abdominal cavity.

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of metabolism<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>mushrooms growing on rations. The types of mycotoxins that often affect poultry and are dangerous are aflatoxins, fusariotoxins and ochratoxins. Various mycotoxins can be found in agricultural products (corn, bran, soybeans) with varying amounts\/concentrations. Ration raw materials with a moisture content of more than 14%, which is stored at a temperature of 10-42\u00b0C and humidity of more than 70% will be very easily contaminated with mold. And as the fungus grows, mycotoxins will immediately be produced (generated). Mycotoxicosis attacks in chickens are influenced by several factors, namely gender, age, physical condition, nutritional status, levels and types of mycotoxins, ration consumption, duration of attack, maintenance management and other infectious diseases. Mycotoxicosis is immunosuppressive, so it can provoke the appearance of other diseases. The reaction of mycotoxins with DNA \/ RNA will inhibit protein synthesis. Whereas if it reacts with the cell membrane it will inhibit the transport of nutrients in the cell. Mycotoxins can reduce the availability of digestive enzymes in chickens so that it can affect the digestive process and absorption of nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"403\" height=\"304\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-13.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-81258\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-13.png 403w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-13-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-13-16x12.png 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 403px) 100vw, 403px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The incidence of mycotoxicosis in the field is still very high both in chickens&nbsp;<em>broiler&nbsp;<\/em>or&nbsp;<em>layer&nbsp;<\/em>(<strong>Graphic 1<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Graphic 2<\/strong>).
