The efficacy of zinc application in the treatment and prevention of diarrhoea in the weaning period of piglets has been demonstrated. However, beside this positive effect some authors suggested the possibility of harmful effects of zinc oxide supplementation on the environment and public health. The aims of the study were to evaluate, in experimental and field conditions, the influence of different...
The investigation was carried out on 40 dogs of different sex, age and breed. The animals were divided into 3 groups: I (control) – 20 healthy dogs, II - dogs with diarrhoea aged under 1.5 years, III - dogs with Falimentary tract catarrh symptoms aged over 1.5 years. Clinicaf examinations were performed in all the animals. In 5 randomly chosen dogs from each group, D-xylose and glucose loading tests...
Biological material was taken from dogs with diarrhea. Faecal samples were taken from live animals white intestinal tract fragments (i.e. small intestine, and stomach) were taken from dead animals. In total, 18 specimens were investigated from dogs housed alone or in large groups. The samples were examined for presence of viral infections and concurrent bacterial and parasitic infestations. To test...
Principal aim of this study was to examine fecal samples from pigs suffering from diarrhea for the presence of Lawsonia intracellularis, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli. The molecular techniques such as PCR and nested PCR were employed to detect the presence of p78 fragment of genomic DNA specific for Lawsonia intracellularis as well as fragment of tlyA gene specific for Brachyspira...
A case of diarrhoea in a four-month-old golden retriever is described. On the basis of anamnesis and bacteriological examination, the diagnosis of bacterial enteritis due to Providencia alcalifaciens was reached. Although there are contradictory opinions about the role of this organism as the enteric pathogen, it seems that Providencia alcalifaciens should also be taken into consideration in the routine...
The clinical form of the protothecosis in animals is most commonly observed in countries with a warm and moist climate, only a few reports describing cases of this infection in cooler areas of the word exist. In the case of large bowel infection in dogs, organisms colonise the lamina propria and submucosa causing severe necrotizing ulcerative or haemorrhagic enterocolitis. In this report the intestinal...
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of a probiotic containing Bacillus cereus var. Toyoi spores (Toyocerin®) and benzoic acid (VevoVitall®) on growth performance and diarrhoea in weaning pigs, against negative controls. The trial groups were as follows: (a) NC group (Negative Controls): No treatment (b) TOYO group: Same feed as in the controls plus Toyocerin® at a dose of 1 x 10⁹...
