Intestinal spirochaetes colonizing aborigines from communities in the remote north of Western Australia [PDF]
, 1992 Intestinal spirochaetal bacteria were isolated from 59 of 181 (32.6%) faecal samples obtained from Aboriginal children and a few adults living in communities in the Kimberley region in the north of Western Australia. Colonization was more common in young

The incidence of swine dysentery in pigs can be reduced by feeding diets that limit the amount of fermentable substrate entering the large intestine [PDF]
, 1996 Two experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that feeding diets which limit the amount of fermentable substrate entering the large intestine would protect pigs against experimental infection with Serpulina hyodysenteriae, the causative agent of ...

Fermentation in the large gut and swine dysentery [PDF]
, 1995 Previous research (Siba et al., 1993a, 1993b) suggests that swine dysentery may be prevented in growing pigs that are infected with Serpulina hyodysenteriae by feeding a diet based on cooked white rice and animal protein.

Dietary control of swine dysentery [PDF]
, 1994 In many parts of the world swine dysentery (SD) remains one of the most economically significant diseases of pigs. The condition results from infection with the aerotolerant anaerobic spirochaetal bacterium Serpulinahyodysenteriae, and may result in a ...
