Evaluating a natural outbreak of porcine proliferative enteropathy and treatment with tylosin in the grow-finish phase
نویسندگان
چکیده
Objective: To determine approximate time and severity of a porcine proliferative enteropathy (PPE) outbreak in a herd with a history of PPE; to compare average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI), feed efficiency (F:G), and clinical impression of disease in clinically affected nonmedicated controls versus pigs medicated with 110 ppm (100 g per ton) of tylosin for 21 days followed by 44 ppm (40 g per ton) tylosin for an additional 21 days; and to follow pigs to market to determine effects of the outbreak on clinical PPE lesions detected at slaughter.

Evaluation of tylosin tartrate in drinking water for treatment of porcine proliferative enteropathy (ileitis)
Materials and methods: The study consisted of three treatments (Nonchallenged– unmedicated, Challenged–unmedicated, and Challenged–medicated), with six pens of six pigs per treatment (N = 108 pigs). Pigs 28 days old were challenged orally on Days 0 and 1 with L intracellularis. Drinking water medicated with tylosin tartrate (Tylan Soluble Powder; Elanco Animal Health, Indianapolis, Indiana) was...

This double-blind study investigated the efficacy of injectable tylosin (Tylan 200 injection, Elanco Animal Health, Indianapolis, IN) for the treatment and control of porcine proliferative enteropathy caused by Lawsonia intracellularis using a mucosal challenge model. Intramuscular (IM) tylosin was compared with sterile tylosin injection carrier (negative control). IM treatments (1 mL/22.5 kg [...

This study represents the first published data on antimicrobial susceptibility of Asian isolates of Lawsonia intracellularis. We assessed MICs of 16 antimicrobials for two isolates of L. intracellularis recovered from diseased pigs in South Korea, one from a finisher pig with acute proliferative hemorrhagic enteropathy in 2002 and the other from a grower pig with porcine intestinal adenomatosis...
متن کاملThe effect of porcine proliferative enteropathy on the introduction of gilts into recipient herds
Porcine proliferative enteropathy (PPE) caused by Lawsonia intracellularis (LI) is one of the most important enteric diseases in growing swine. The acute form of this disease, proliferative hemorrhagic enteropathy (PHE), has become a common problem when replacement breeding stock are introduced into a herd. In the cases described, animals of different immune status were moved between supply and...

In each of three trials, 240 crossbred barrows weaned at 17 d of age (5.1 kg BW) were assigned to one of three experimental treatments based on light and heavy weight outcome groups. Experimental treatments were 1) wean-to-finish at 0.69 m2/pig and 15 pigs/pen; 2) wean-to-finish double-stocked at 0.35 m2/pig, 30 pigs per pen for 8 wk and then randomly split into two pens (either stayed in same ...
