TLDR
The level of excretion of urinary heterocyclic amines increased in all animals in the period of the first week after weaning whether the animals were clinically affected with scours or not and the overall production of diamine within the alimentary tract is no indication of the predisposition to diarrhoea.About:

Antibiotic growth promoters in agriculture: history and mode of action
Julia J. Dibner,J. D. Richards +1 more
TL;DR: The biological basis for antibiotic effects on animal growth efficiency will consider effects on intestinal microbiota and effects on the host animal and will use the germ-free animal to illustrate effects of the conventional microflora.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutritional influences on some major enteric bacterial diseases of pig.
TL;DR: Greater understanding of how ‘nutrition’ influences gut epithelial biology and immunobiology, and their interactions with both commensal and pathogenic bacteria, holds promise as a means of tackling enteric disease without antimicrobial agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
The gastrointestinal microbiota and its role in monogastric nutrition and health with an emphasis on pigs: current understanding, possible modulations, and new technologies for ecological studies.
TL;DR: This review will examine the establishment and composition of the normal microbiota; its beneficial and deleterious effects on the host; and methods by which to modify the microbiota.

Effect of dietary protein content on ileal amino acid digestibility, growth performance, and formation of microbial metabolites in ileal and cecal digesta of early-weaned pigs,

TL;DR: Lowering the dietary CP content combined with supplementation of AA markedly reduced the production of potentially harmful microbial metabolites in cecal digesta of early-weaned pigs without affecting growth performance and fecal consistency scores.
