Occurrence of the coccidium Isospora suis in piglets
In the period October 2002–September 2004 we examined 2 996 samples of faeces of piglets at the age of 2–47 days. Samples were collected as so called “composite” ones from the pen floor. Samplings were done in 8 herds in Ceske Budejovice district. One herd was kept on the slatted floor, the other herds were housed on litter. Coprological examinations were carried out within 24 hours after sampl...
