Diagnostic method of the inflammatory processes in the intestine of pigs and broilers

The original express method allows to diagnose enteritis of various ethiology in pigs and birds. The essence of the method for assessing bowel function is to use indicator paper "Indic", coated with a fine dry dye. Assessment of the resorptive function of the intestine is carried out using the visual method by measuring the area of the stain formed by the faeces, which is directly dependent on the volume or percentage of moisture in the faeces of an animal or a bird. This allows you to visually assess the amount of moisture contained in them. The program "ImageJ" with an intuitive interface allows you to measure the area of the spot, which greatly simplifies the visual assessment of the result and increases the accuracy of the study. The use of this express method in industrial pig and poultry farming, using software, creates conditions for the most rational diagnostic method. The sensitivity of the test provides additional detection of animals with an increased level of exudative processes in the intestine, which, on the basis of clinical diagnostics, can be erroneously classified as “healthy”. The method is convenient not only for experimental studies, but also for application in the conditions of floor keeping of broiler chickens, for the diagnosis of eimeriosis and other diseases, with impaired intestinal function. The diagnostic process using the "Indical" test can be divided methodically into 2 stages: experimental - collecting feces for a certain time from a group of animals and analytical -processing the data, obtained using Excel and “ImageJ” software. For clinically healthy pigs, the volumetric moisture index should be 4.7 ± 0.8, and for clinically healthy broiler chickens - 5.04 ± 0.60. The proposed diagnostic test is the most effective and rapid in comparison with the existing methods for diagnosing inflammatory processes in the intestines of pigs and birds.
