Isolation and characterization of Clostridium perfringens strains isolated from ostriches (Struthio camelus) in Vietnam [PDF]
Background and Aim: Clostridium perfringens can cause enteritis in ostriches. The toxin release is believed to play a major role in determining pathogenesis properties of these pathogenic bacteria.

Clostridium perfringens is a ubiquitous spore‐forming anaerobic pathogen that is frequently associated with enteric disease in chickens. Moreover, enterotoxin‐producing C. perfringens has high zoonotic potential as well as serious public health concerns due to the emanation of food‐borne intoxication. The present study was designed to isolate, identify,

Radiolabeled Nanocarriers as Theranostics—Advancement from Peptides to Nanocarriers
Endogenous radiotherapy generally shows a favorable safety profile, however, it is limited by the dose that can be injected without affecting critical organs. This review offers important information and suggestions regarding the field of radio‐nanomedicine, which focuses on the use of nanocarriers for the delivery of radionuclide in order to improve ...

The role of feed enzymes in maintaining poultry intestinal health
Abstract Gut health or intestinal health is frequently discussed without any clear definition as to its meaning. It is suggested that this should be defined as intestinal integrity and functionality as both are a pre‐requisite for the health of the intestine itself and the host.

The objective of this study was to explore the therapeutic effects of berberine on necrotic enteritis (NE) in broilers caused by Clostridium perfringens. A total of 240 1‐day‐old Arbor Acres chicks were divided into four groups, as negative controls (NC), positive controls (PC), berberine‐ (BER‐) treated, or lincomycin‐ (LMY‐) treated groups.

In vitro production of necrotic enteritis toxin B, NetB, by netB-positive and netB-negative Clostridium perfringens originating from healthy and diseased broiler chickens [PDF]
The Clostridium perfringens necrotic enteritis toxin B, NetB, was recently proposed as a new key virulence factor for the development of necrotic enteritis (NE) in broilers. The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence of the netB gene and the in vitro production of the NetB toxin in a well characterized collection of 48 C.

Maternal immunization with vaccines containing recombinant NetB toxin partially protects progeny chickens from necrotic enteritis. [PDF]
Avian necrotic enteritis is a major economic and welfare issue throughout the global poultry industry and is caused by isolates of Clostridium perfringens that produce NetB toxin. Previously we have shown that birds directly vaccinated with inactivated C.
