It was found that when given as feed supplement to pigs experimentally infected with Salmonella Typhimurium, coated butyric acid decreased the levels of faecal shedding and intestinal colonization, but had no influence on the colonization of tonsils, spleen and liver. Uncoated fatty acids, however, did not influence fecal shedding, intestinal or tonsillar colonization in pigs. In conclusion, supplementing feed with certain coated fatty acids, such as butyric acid, may help to reduce the Salmonella load in pigs.<\/p>\n<p>For more information the full article can be found at <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/journal\/03781135\">http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/journal\/03781135<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The aim of the present study was to determine whether some frequently used short- (SCFA) and medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) are able to alter virulence gene expression and to decrease Salmonella Typhimurium colonization and shedding in pigs using well established and controlled in vitro and in vivo assays.
