Salmonella Typhimurium infection alters gut microbiome of weaned pigs
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is one of the causative agents of gastroenteritis in pigs. Antimicrobial treatment has been banned due to increases of antimicrobial resistant microorganisms and the environmental pollution. Thus, many researchers has been investigating on the probiotics or prebiotics as feed additive to prevent S. Typhimurium and improve gut health. We aimed to find novel potential candidate probiotics strains from gut microbiome in weaned piglets infected with S. Typhimurium.
