Insufficient lactogenic protection provided by gilts plays a key role in the development of and the increased prevalence of clinical rotavirus C disease.

The novel cELISA demonstrated excellent agreement and high level correlation with VNT. It is a reliable tool for sero-monitoring of C-strain vaccination campaign.

High doses of 25(OH)D3 may improve immune functions and the antioxidant capacity in weaned pigs.

Bioprocessed soybean meal may be a suitable protein source for piglet nursery diets.

The development of piglet immune system under vaccination against PRRSV it is not improved by the use of probiotics and prebiotics or colostrum.

Dietary combination of probiotics, prebiotics and organic acids improve growth, health and immunity in fattening pigs.

The Brix refractometer provides a simple, fast and inexpensive estimation of colostrum IgG in sows.

Colostrum production and immunoglobulin concentrations to conjugated linoleic acid during late gestation.

The IR method ascertains whether piglets are receiving adequate maternal antibodies until their own immune systems are developed.

Due to the difference in immune programming during early life, the systems respond differently to the post-weaning newly acquired microbiota. As a consequence, the gut systems of the treatment groups develop into different homeostasis.

Within the power of this study, oral rennet supplementation does not increase piglet serum globulin concentrations.

This benefit for the offspring highlights the potential of oral immunisation of sows against C. suis as a possible passive vaccination strategy for new born piglets against this important pathogen.

Supplementation of citric acid improves the absorption of dietary Ca, P and protein.

These findings illustrate the importance of maternal infection, despite robust anti-PCV2 immunity, in early infection of newborn piglets.
