Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on improving the consistency of experimental protocols for inducing swine dysentery in pigs, which is caused by harmful Brachyspira bacteria and poses an economic challenge for the swine industry.
- Researchers conducted six trials to test different inoculation methods and conditions, comparing factors like group housing, bacterial strains, and inoculation volumes.
- The findings suggest that using a fresh broth culture of B. hyodysenteriae strain G44 via intragastric inoculation is effective in producing desirable symptoms and is cost-efficient, indicating a preferred method for future research.
