This practical book thoroughly reviews the current knowledge on salmonellosis in swine, and discusses the difficulty to control Salmonella spp. from a global perspective. It provides information about the actions that can be taken in order to reduce its incidence, with an emphasis on risk factors from feed manufacturing to carcass processing.
Atlas exclusively dedicated to the most important parasites and parasitoses of sheep. It is an eminently practical publication, with numerous images that help to identify parasites and understand their biological cycles. It includes a chapter on the key diagnostic techniques used to identify adult parasites, eggs and larvae.
The number of new technology vaccines available has been increased worldwide, as well as their widespread use in the poultry industry, especially at hatchery level. Therefore, an updated review with practical and visual approach has been developed in order to highlight the importance of hatchery vaccination in poultry farming, whatever the vaccination technique used (in ovo, subcutaneous or spray vaccination), to control the main diseases affecting this species (infectious bursal disease, Newcastle disease, infectious laryngotracheitis, etc.). This handbook has been written by an expert with wide experience in this field. Numerous graphic resources have been included to complement the information provided and make the contents more understandable and accessible to readers.
This book provides a comprehensive review of in ovo techniques and treatments in poultry eggs, which are aimed at improving embryonic development and decreasing economic losses in poultry farms. The book is divided into four chapters, which address the basics of in ovo techniques and sites of in ovo injection, nutrient utilisation for the development of the chick embryo, the role of early in ovo feeding for the chick embryo, and applications of in ovo technology for various nutrients and biological supplements in poultry.
