Effects of plant extracts on diarrhea and intestinal morphology of piglets challenged with E. coli
Plant extracts may reduce diarrhea impact of piglets challenged with E. coli
Clinical case: Episode with a high mortality in the weaning stage
The nervous system symptomatology is characterized by some cases of meningitis and opistothonus, dizziness and serious deep depression in a great number of animals. The necropsy shows, in all the cases, a serious lung congestion and an enteritis with a variable seriousness with a more or less important involvement of the mesenteric lymph nodes.
Effect of mixing piglets affected by Escherichia coli diarrhea on growth and welfare responses
Mixing piglets affected by E. coli diarrhea may have a detrimental effect on growth rate.
Weaned pig responses to Escherichia coli K88 oral challenge when receiving a lysozyme supplement
Lysozyme supplementation may reduce the negative impact of Escherichia coli K88 in weanling piglets.
Oral immunization of weaned piglets with tobacco seeds expressing antigenic proteins of VTEC
Oral administration of recombinant tobacco seeds expressing antigenic proteins against VTEC strains can induce an increase of mucosal antibodies.
Effect of in-water iodine supplementation on weight gain, diarrhea and oral and dental health of nursery pigs
Adding an aqueous iodine supplement to nursery pigs, therefore, did not provide an advantage for either growth or oral condition. Deleterious oral conditions do increase after weaning, with gingivitis being associated with lower piglet weight.
Clinical case: Post-weaning diarrhoea outbreaks in Eastern Europe
The pig farm management team in charge of the post-weaned piglet nursery areas on these wean-to-finish sites has found serious problems with diarrhoea in recent batches of piglets arriving from the breeding farms.
Plant additives as an alternative to feed antimicrobials in the prevention of postweaning diarrhoea in pigs
Both plants, Eugenia and Pterocarya can represent effective alternatives to feed antimicrobials for the use in prevention of PWD in pigs, but further studies are necessary.
Dietary addition of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG impairs the health of Escherichia coli F4 challenged piglets
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG does not ameliorate the negative effects caused by E. coli F4-in challenged piglets.
Bovine calostrum is superior to enriched formulas in stimulating intestinal function in preterm pigs
The inclusion of osteopontin in milk formulas protects against necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm piglets.
In-feed antibiotic effects on the swine intestinal microbiome
Medicated pigs show an increase in Proteobacteria (1–11%) compared with nonmedicated at the same time point. This shift was driven by an increase in Escherichia coli populations.
Green kiwifruit modulates the colonic microbiota in growing pigs
Gastrointestinal disorders in pigs could be discouraged by green kiwifruit consumption
USA: USDA announces new safeguards to protect consumers from foodborne illness
FSIS is proposing to launch traceback investigations earlier and identify additional potentially contaminated product when the Agency finds E. coli O157:H7 through its routine sampling program.
The use of seaweed extract in piglet diets
Seaweeds are rich in undigestible polysaccharides and are a potential source of soluble dietary fibers. The most abundant polysaccharides in brown seaweeds are laminarin, fucoidan and alginic acid.
EFSA and ECDC joint report on antimicrobial resistance in zoonotic bacteria
Resistance to several antimicrobials was commonly detected in zoonotic bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter which are the main causes of reported food-borne infections in the EU.
