Selenium in Pig Nutrition and Health

Image
  Selenium in Pig Nutrition and Health by Peter F. Surai January 2021 Selenium (Se) is an essential dietary trace element participating in the regulation of various physiological functions in humans, farm animals and poultry through its incorporation into a range of selenoproteins. Low Se content in main feed ingredients is a common problem worldwide and dietary Se supplementation is a current practise in pig nutrition. Recent research clearly proved that sodium selenite, used as a feed supplement for the last 45 years, is not an optimal form of Se. However, use of organic selenium in pig diets can help meeting Se requirement and maintain health/high immunocompetence, productive and reproductive performance. The goal of this book is to provide up to date information about the roles of Se in pig nutrition and health. The role of selenium as an essential part of the integrated antioxidant system gets special attention. Organic Se concept in pig nutrition is described in detail with empha...

Quantifying Pain in Laying Hens: A Blueprint for the Comparative Analysis of Welfare in Animals

Image
  Quantifying Pain in Laying Hens: A Blueprint for the Comparative Analysis of Welfare in Animals by Cynthia Schuck-Paim, Wladimir J. Alonso August 2021 To effectively improve the lives of the animals under human care, a clear understanding of the impact of living conditions and practices on animal welfare is essential to establish which policies and interventions should be ascribed priority. This new book is an effort in this direction. It presents an analytical framework designed for the description and quantification of the negative affective experiences of animals, which are operationally referred to as ‘pain’ (physical and psychological). The book is the first road-test of the method, applying it to conditions that impact negatively the welfare of egg laying hens. Topics include the impact of keel bone fractures, injurious pecking, deprivation of motivated behaviors, reproductive diseases, and the cumulative pain endured in different housing systems. It is our hope that the findin...

Fish Parasites: A Handbook of Protocols for their Isolation, Culture and Transmission

Image
  Fish Parasites: A Handbook of Protocols for their Isolation, Culture and Transmission by Ariadna Sitjà-Bobadilla, James. E. Bron, Geert Wiegertjes, M. Carla Piazzon September 2021 Good fish health and welfare are essential components of sustainable aquaculture and in this regard, fish parasites constitute a major constraint to production. The aquaculture industries of areas affected by various disease outbreaks have suffered considerably from the impacts of marine and freshwater parasites. It is therefore fundamentally important to take steps to prevent parasite infection, as well as to properly identify, monitor and treat outbreaks when they occur. ParaFishControl, an EU-funded project involving industry, academic and government partners drawn from across Europe, whose work has led to this book, is dedicated to effectively understanding and controlling a diverse range of fish parasites in order to promote the sustainability and competitiveness of the European aquaculture industry.

Infectious Disease Ecology of Wild Birds

Image
  Infectious Disease Ecology of Wild Birds by Jennifer C. Owen, Dana M. Hawley, Kathryn P. Huyvaert June 2021 Birds are the most diverse group of land vertebrates and have evolved to exploit almost every terrestrial niche on earth. They also serve as a natural reservoir for an array of different pathogens that pose serious health risks to human and domestic animal populations, including West Nile virus, highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, Newcastle Disease virus, and numerous enteric pathogens. Avian diseases are also critically important to the conservation of endemic bird species in many places around the world. This accessible textbook focuses on the dynamics of infectious diseases for wild avian hosts across every level of ecological hierarchy, from the way pathogens interact with the physiology and behavior of individual hosts, the evolutionary and ecological dynamics of the host-parasite interactions occurring within populations, up to the complex biotic and abiotic intera...
