title: [Intestinal syndrome of absent fermentation in swine after liquid feeding of easily-fermentable components].
abstract: Intestinal dysfermentation with diarrhea, tympania and accidental cases of sudden death in the pig after liquid feeding of components highly fermentable. 6 cases of the veterinary feeding advisement of the Institute of animal nutrition are presented, which can be described with the complex of symptoms: diarrhea, bloat, sudden death. These are related to feeding technique, feed composition and hygienic quality of the feed. All techniques of feeding, causing abundant feed intake and thus an exceeding of the digestive capacity of the gut are a predisposition for fermentative disturbances. A high level of feed hygiene can only be maintained in liquid feeding systems by high efforts concerning cleaning. A reduced hygienic feed quality in all present cases was apparent. All rations had a high content of easily fermentable components (sugar, partially enzymatically predigested starch). The clinical symptoms correspond to the well known "whey-syndrome". They are however not strictly correlated to rations with high whey contents. The prophylactic procedure especially concerns the improvement of the hygienic feed quality, the feeding technique and the addition of acids.
