Post-weaning problems in outdoor pig production caused by Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens type A.
Pig Journal, 2003, Volume 51, June, 92-97
Some strains of Clostridium perfringens type A (CpA) are part of the normal intestinal flora of pigs. However, CpA and Escherichia coli (E. coli) dual infections can be responsible of high morbidity and mortality (diarrhea) and are now considered as an emerging problem for outdoor raised grower pigs in Croatia. A description of a prophylactic medication aimed at reducing post-weaning losses is reported. Better results are obtained when such medication is implemented against both CpA and E.coli rather than against only one of them.
