During the past years epizootic outbreaks of mucoid enteropathy syndrome (MES) disease have emerged and spread rapidly in rabbit farms in East China causing great economic losses. To investigate the nature and evolution of the disease, two trials were conducted in an attempt to reproduce the...

Epizootic rabbit enteropathy (ERE) affects young rabbits and represents 32% of the enteropathies in rabbit production farms in Mexico. The etiology of this syndrome has not been clarified yet. A metataxonomic and histopathology study of ERE was carried out to compare the gastrointestinal microbiota ...

Epizootic rabbit enteropathy (ERE) represents one of the most devastating diseases affecting rabbit farms. Previous studies showing transmissibility of disease symptoms through oral inoculation of intestinal contents from sick animals suggested a bacterial infectious origin for ERE. However, no...

Epizootic Rabbit Enteropathy (ERE) is a disease of unknown aetiology that mainly affects post-weaning animals. Caecotrophs from animals in a farm affected by ERE were analysed to identify changes in the microbiological profile of growing rabbits. Does and kits at weaning (28 d) and the same rabbits ...

A blinded, randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of valnemulin hydrochloride premix during an outbreak of epizootic rabbit enteropathy (ERE) when administered in feed for 21 consecutive days after confirmation of the first ERE case....

These proceedings focus on strategies against antibiotic resistance in rabbit farming and highlights the relevance of this problem and the responsibility of each agent to improve it, expounds the national plan against antibiotic resistance and the first milestones reached in reducing antibiotic use ...

Epizootic rabbit enteropathy (ERE) is reproduced successfully in the present study by feeding rabbits a low-fibre diet, and high-throughput sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analysis were applied to examine the microbial variations in the stomach, small intestine and caecum. The...

Epizootic rabbit enteropathy is a gastrointestinal disorder of unknown aetiology of farmed rabbits characterised by inanition and mortality. Genomic analyses of virulent and non-virulent samples of inocula were performed using random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Differences in bacterial ...

The aim of the present study was to check the interest of forcing the water to feed ratio at 1.7 when rationing rabbits in good sanitary conditions (without experimental reproduction of Epizootic Rabbit Enteropathy) and in Epizootic Rabbit Enteropathy conditions. Three hundred thirty six rabbits,...

The aetiological agent of epizootic rabbit enteropathy (ERE) is still unknown although a bacterial infection seems the most likely hypothesis. In this study, amplification of the V5 and V6 regions of 16SrDNA from four virulent and two non-virulent caecal samples was performed using a pyrosequencing ...
