The effect of kaolin feeding on efficiency, health status and course of diarrhoeal infections caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains in weaned piglets

Original language description

The purpose of the study was to assess the effect of kaolin feeding on health status, BWG, course of diarrhoeal infections and the level of mycobacterial contamination in weaned piglets. The testing was performed in two experiments involving 40 weaned piglets at the age of 28 days. In the feeding experiment, piglets were fed a diet without or with 1% content of kaolin for 20 days. Identical diets were fed during the infection experiment, and moreover, both groups were orally infected with ETEC O141:F18.The feeding of kaolin to piglets had a positive effect on their BWG. There was no evidence of side effects to their health status, biochemical and haematological profiles. Colonization and shedding of ETEC by piglets fed the kaolin diet were milder andhad a shorter duration. The culture examination of kaolin for mycobacteria was negative. Supplementation of diets with 1% kaolin to prevent diarrhoea in piglets and to support their growth in the critical post-weaning period could be reco
