Antibodies and Inflammation: Fecal Biomarkers of Gut Health in Domestic Ruminants

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 4, Page 468-479, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal infections present major challenges to ruminant livestock systems, and gut health is a key constraint on fitness, welfare, and productivity. Fecal biomarkers present opportunities to monitor animal health without using invasive methods, and with greater resolution compared to observational metrics.
