Colibacillosis, caused by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC), is one of the most common diseases in rabbit farms, resulting economic losses due to mortality and decrease production. Until recently, antimicrobials were used both treat prevent disease on livestock leading possible risk antimicrobial resistance (AMR) selection multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Therefore, interest alternati...

Bacterial intestinal infections are one of the main diseases in pigs different ages. pig digestive tract lead to significant economic losses due high mortality, reduced growth, treatment and prevention costs.
 The bacterial anaerobic enterotoxemia (clostridiosis), colibacillosis, salmonellosis, dysentery, proliferative enteropathy (ileitis).
 Anaerobic is an acute toxic-infectious dis...

Bacteriophage phAPEC8 is an Escherichia coli-infecting myovirus, isolated on an avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) strain. APEC strains cause colibacillosis in poultry, resulting in high mortality levels and important economic losses. Genomic analysis of the 147,737-bp double-stranded DNA phAPEC8 genome revealed that 53% of the 269 encoded proteins are unique to this phage. Its closest re...

Antimicrobial therapy is an important tool in reducing the enormous losses in the poultry industry caused by Escherichia coli infections (colibacillosis). However, resistance to existing antimicrobials is widespread and of concern to poultry veterinarians. Antimicrobial resistance testing of 468 avian E. coli strains isolated in Spain showed very high levels of resistance to trimethoprim-sulfam...

Background and Aim: With the development of industrial maintenance technology, a group pathogens called avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) became very common. The initiation, development, outcome infectious process mediated by virulent APEC strains occur through decrease in colonization resistance intestine, an immunobiological marker homeostasis stability susceptible species. This study ...

Enteric bacterial infections in poultry pose a threat to intestinal health and can contribute to poor feed efficiency and livability of a flock. A variety of enteric bacterial diseases are recognized in poultry. Three of these bacterial diseases, necrotic enteritis, ulcerative enteritis, and spirochetosis, primarily infect the intestine, whereas other bacterial diseases, such as salmonellosis, ...

Differential diagnoses for diarrhea in weaned pigs include salmonellosis, swine dysentery, porcine proliferative enteropathy (PPE) caused by Lawsonia intracellularis, rotavirus and coronavirus enteritis, postweaning colibacillosis, trichuriasis, coccidiosis,1 and porcine colonic spirochetosis (PCS) caused by Brachyspira pilosicoli.2 Postweaning diarrhea may be associated with multiple concurren...
