Abstract

PROLIFERATIVE enteropathy (PE) is an endemic bacterial disease of pigs caused by infection with Lawsonia intracellularis ([McOrist and others 1993][1]). The use of targeted intervention programmes against PE is most likely to have a reliable beneficial effect where the time of onset of infection is
