Experimental induction of diarrhoea in newly-weaned piglets

Journal of Veterinary Medicine Series A, 1991
To induce diarrhoea and hypovolaemia, newly-weaned conventionally bred piglets (3- to 4-weeks-old), were either given secretagogues or were inoculated with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). Choleratoxin (n = 2), E. coli heat-labile enterotoxin (n

Effects of Microencapsulated Essential Oils on Growth and Intestinal Health in Weaned Piglets

Animals
The study investigated the effects of microencapsulated essential oils (MEO) on the growth performance, diarrhea, and intestinal microenvironment of weaned piglets. The 120 thirty-day-old weaned piglets (Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire, 8.15 ± 0.07 kg) were

Identification of SNPs Associated With mRNA Expression Differences of the Complement Receptor Type 1-Like Gene in Landrace Weaned Piglets. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of porcine complement receptor 1‐like (CR1‐like) gene and its mRNA expression. Methods SNP identification, qRT‐PCR absolute quantification, linkage disequilibrium analysis and dual‐luciferase reporter assay were performed using 392 ...

Stress-Induced Phosphaturia in Weaned Piglets [PDF]

Animals, 2020
The weaning period in piglets draws significant attention from researchers, veterinarians, and breeders. A substantial change in diet accompanied by enormous stress has health and welfare implications (abnormal feeding intake, infections, umbilical lesions, etc.).

Effects of dietary lysozyme on immune response and fecal microflora in both sows and their offspring

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2021
Two studies were conducted to investigate the effects of dietary lysozyme on immune response, fecal microflora in sows and their offspring fed lysozyme from late gestation to the onset of lactation, and growth performance in weaned piglets.

Dietary Hermetia illucens Larvae Replacement Alleviates Diarrhea and Improves Intestinal Barrier Function in Weaned Piglets Challenged With Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli K88

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
A high-quality protein substitute, Hermetia illucens (black soldier fly) larvae powder, is rich in protein and often used in animal feed. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and optimal ratio of replacing fish meal with H.

The pathogenesis of the post‐weaning syndrome in weaned piglets; a review [PDF]

Veterinary Quarterly, 1992
This review deals with the pathogenesis of the post-weaning syndrome. This syndrome includes post-weaning diarrhoea (PWD), oedema disease (OD) and endotoxin shock (ES). The role of different enteropathogenic Escherichia coli bacteria and some other predisposing factors relating to this post-weaning syndrome (PWS) are discussed.

Effects of Supplementation with a Quebracho Tannin Product as an Alternative to Antibiotics on Growth Performance, Diarrhea, and Overall Health in Early-Weaned Piglets

Animals, 2021
This study assessed the feasibility of using a vegetable extract, MGM-P (quebracho tannin product), as an alternative to antibiotics for weaned piglets; it investigated MGM-P effects on growth performance, diarrhea, and overall health in early-weaned ...

The biological stress of early weaned piglets [PDF]

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2013
Pigs experience biological stress such as physiological, environmental, and social challenges when weaned from the sow. The process of weaning is one of the most stressful events in the pig's life that can contribute to intestinal and immune system dysfunctions that result in reduced pig health, growth, and feed intake, particularly during the first ...
