35 The stomach as a barrier Increased microbial activity in the stomach Increased production of organic acids decrease ph Kill enterobacteria entering the stomach Lower proliferation of enterobacteria in the small intestine Fewer enterobacteria excreted with faeces Breaking the vicious circle where pigs in problematic herds infect each other and are re-infected through consumption of faeces

56 Probiotica Viable defined microorganism, which alter the microbiota in a way that exert beneficial effects on the host The three most commonly used organisms as probiotics: bacillus, yeast and lactic acid producing bacteria (lactobacillus, bifidobacterium and enterococcus) Inconstancy in results properly doe to: dosage and type of strains, environment and diet type Needed: strains as well of doses that gives consistently good results Mechanism not completely understood, a few have been proposed: inhibit pathogen adhesion by steric hindrance or competitive exclusion production of products with antibacterial activity (bacteriocins or OA) modulation of the host immune system

65 Low protein diets Source and level known to affect enteric health of weaned pigs Source: animal protein better than plant protein more knowladge on microbial composition and activity needed Level: low protein diets supplemented with synthetic AA prevent post weaning diarrhoea without compromising growth performance

66 Conclusion Feed FLF: Increase gut health but reduce growth performance may be a way to make probiotics cost effective. Feed structure: Increase gut health but reduce growth performance Prebiotics: Inconsistent results. More research needed. May not be cost effective. Additives ZnO: increase growth performance and reduce PWD, but gives environmental problems OA: right doses and types have beneficial effects on growth performance and health Probiotics: Inconsistent results. More strains should be tested. May not be cost effective
