Lawsonia intracellularis infection and proliferative enteropathy in foals. [PDF]
Equine proliferative enteropathy (EPE) is a disease of foals caused by the obligate intracellular organism Lawsonia intracellularis. This organism is unique in that it causes proliferation of infected enterocytes, resulting in thickening of the ...

Health advantages of transition to batch management system in farrow-to-finish pig herds [PDF]
Sow batch management systems have become more popular due to advantages in labour planning, piglet batch sizes, all-in all-out practices and health management. The present study investigated the potential health advantages of 10 selected farrow-to-finish
