Identification of a Key Residue for Oligomerisation and Pore-Formation of Clostridium perfringens NetB

Toxins, 2014
Necrotic enteritis toxin B (NetB) is a β-pore-forming toxin produced by Clostridium perfringens and has been identified as a key virulence factor in the pathogenesis of avian necrotic enteritis, a disease causing significant economic damage to the ...

Research Note: The administration schedule of coccidia is a major determinant in broiler necrotic enteritis models [PDF]

Poultry Science, 2021
A reliable and reproducible in vivo experimental model is an essential tool to study the pathogenesis of broiler necrotic enteritis and to evaluate control methods. Most current in vivo models use Eimeria as predisposing factor. Nevertheless, most models

The mycotoxin deoxynivalenol predisposes for the development of Clostridium perfringens-induced necrotic enteritis in broiler chickens.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Both mycotoxin contamination of feed and Clostridium perfringens-induced necrotic enteritis have an increasing global economic impact on poultry production. Especially the Fusarium mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) is a common feed contaminant.

Role of Wheat Based Diet on the Pathology of Necrotic Enteritis in Turkeys [PDF]

Scientifica, 2016
The study was conducted to investigate the effects of wheat based diet on the pathology of necrotic enteritis in turkeys. Turkeys were divided into four groups. Groups A and B were kept as noninoculated and fed normal commercial diet while groups C and D

Alternatives to antibiotics to prevent necrotic enteritis in broiler chickens: a microbiologist’s perspective.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Since the 2006 European ban on the use of antibiotics as growth promoters in animal feed, numerous studies have been published describing alternative strategies to prevent diseases in animals.

The incidence of necrotic enteritis in turkeys is associated with farm, season and faecal Eimeria oocyst counts

BMC Veterinary Research, 2021
Background Specific studies on the epidemiology of necrotic enteritis in turkeys are absent in the literature. Necrotic enteritis is common in turkeys and a leading cause of use of therapeutic antibiotics.

Clostridium perfringens-Associated Necrotic Enteritis-Like Disease in Coconut Lorikeets (Trichoglossus haematodus). [PDF]

, 2021
Several outbreaks of necrotic enteritis-like disease in lorikeets, from which Clostridium perfringens was consistently isolated, are described. All lorikeets had acute, segmental, or multifocal fibrinonecrotizing inflammatory lesions in the small and/or ...

Dietary Probiotic Supplementation Suppresses Subclinical Necrotic Enteritis in Broiler Chickens in a Microbiota-Dependent Manner

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundChicken meat is one of the most consumed meats worldwide and poultry production is increasing at an exponential rate. Reducing antibiotic usage has resulted in the recurrence of subclinical necrotic enteritis again and influenced global poultry

Clostridium perfringens-Induced Necrotic Diseases: An Overview

Immuno, 2022
Clostridium perfringens, a prevalent Gram-positive bacterium, causes necrotic diseases associated with abundant life loss and economic burdens of billions of USD. The mechanism of C. perfringens-induced necrotic diseases remains largely unknown, in part,
