How to prevent post-weaning diarrhea in piglets?
Understanding the causes of diarrhea in piglets after Weaning Diarrhea in piglets during weaning is mainly caused by several interrelated factors. One of the main factors is the sudden change in diet when piglets switch from sow’s milk to solid feed. This change can disrupt the intestinal microbiota, leading to digestive disorders and diarrhea (Pluske, …

The importance of preventing cryptosporidiosis in calves
Understanding cryptosporidiosis and its contamination in Calves Cryptosporidiosis is mainly caused by Cryptosporidium parvum, a protozoan parasite that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract of calves, leading to diarrhea. Transmission occurs via the fecal-oral route, through the ingestion of cryptosporidium oocysts contained in contaminated water, food, or by direct contact with infected animals. The parasite can survive …

The growing resistance of coccidiosis in poultry production
Understanding the resistance development of Eimeria Coccidiosis, a disease caused by the protozoan parasites of the genus Eimeria, is a significant threat to poultry, particularly broilers. These parasites are capable of causing severe intestinal distress, leading to poor nutrient absorption, diarrhea, and in severe cases, death. Eimeria species develop resistance through genetic mutations and adaptive …
