E. coli pathotypes identified through 16S microbiome and bacterial isolation in pigs with post-weaning diarrhea (PWD)

Published: November 14, 2023

Diana Ayala (Purina Animal Nutrition) presents research to determine the underlying bacterial cause of PWD and a potential vertical transmission from sows to pre-weaned piglets, as well as to determine whether a customized direct-fed microbial (DFM)-based product could reduce the pathogens isolated from affected pigs, during the 11th Symposium on Gut Health in Production of Food Animals in St. Louis, USA.
