Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Lawsonia intracellularis gen. nov., sp. nov., the obligately intracellular bacterium of porcine proliferative enteropathy.
TL;DR: On the basis of the results of an integrated study of the phenotype and genotype of a consistent morphological entity found in particular porcine cells and associated with a well-defined clinical condition, it is concluded that these bacteria belong to a previously undescribed genus and species, for which the name Lawsonia intracellularis gen. nov.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced detection of intracellular organism of swine proliferative enteritis, ileal symbiont intracellularis, in feces by polymerase chain reaction.
TL;DR: A sensitive assay based on amplification of a 319-bp DNA fragment of the intracellular bacterium of swine proliferative enteritis was developed for the detection of the organism in the feces ofSwine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Onset and duration of fecal shedding, cell-mediated and humoral immune responses in pigs after challenge with a pathogenic isolate or attenuated vaccine strain of Lawsonia intracellularis
TL;DR: Both pathogenic isolate challenged and vaccine exposed pigs demonstrated long-term shedding of and immune responses to L. intracellularis.
Journal Article
Comparison of different methods for diagnosis of porcine proliferative enteropathy.

TL;DR: In experimentally infected pigs, both serologic methods were appropriate techniques for detecting infection and immunohistochemistry is the best diagnostic tool for formalin-fixed samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Equine proliferative enteropathy: a cause of weight loss, colic, diarrhoea and hypoproteinaemia in foals on three breeding farms in Canada.
Jean-Pierre Lavoie,Richard Drolet,D. Parsons,Renaud Léguillette,R. Sauvageau,J. Shapiro,L. Houle,G. HallÉ,Connie J. Gebhart +8 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that equine PE should be included in the differential diagnosis of outbreaks of rapid weight loss, diarrhoea, colic and hypoproteinaemia in weanling foals.
