Complexity of the aetiology of the suckling piglets diarrhoea [PDF]
This review of the literature is characterising the aetiology of the diarrhoea of suckling piglets with reference to pathogenic bacteria and viruses,also including the influence of the unfavourable environmental factors. The laboratory investigations of faecal samples demonstrated the etiological importance of E.coli, not only those with haemolytic ...

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle

Weaning stress induced alterations to the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐thyroid and ‐adrenal axes in swine
Abstract Combined modulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid (HPT) and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axes is known to play a critical role in maintaining physiological stability in response to stress. In this study, stress induced modulation of these axes was examined using 20 pigs/treatment either weaned (WN), weaned with feed/water ...

Update of the risk assessment on dioxins and dioxin‐like PCBs in feed and food
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2018 risk assessment on polychlorinated dibenzo‐p‐dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and dioxin‐like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL‐PCBs) in feed and food, based on the 2022 WHO Toxic Equivalency Factors (WHO2022‐TEFs).
