Association Between Faecal Load of Lawsonia intracellularis and Pathological Findings of Proliferative Enteropathy in Pigs with Diarrhoea
Histological and quantitative detection of L.intracellularis was correlated in pigs with diarrhoea in a trial in Denmark, allowing clinically important levels for the excretion of the bacterium in faeces to be established. This will help to confirm a diagnosis of L. intracellularis-associated diarrhoea in order to monitor treatment effects.
