Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of liquid VIUSID VET® (CATALYSIS) on average daily weight gain (ADG), frequency and severity of pneumonia in pre-fattening pigs. Crossbred pigs at weaning (26 days) were housed in cubicles with grooved plastic floors, in groups of 10 individuals at a rate of 4,76 m2/pig, inside a closed facility with forced ventilation by means of extractors. Two treatments consisting of 0.2% liquid VIUSID VET® in the drinking water or control were randomly assigned. In ADG evaluation, 80 pre-fattening pig equally divided between the VIUSID VET®-treated group and the control were used. To compare the proportions of pneumonic lungs, 314 individuals were included (161 treated with VIUSID VET® and 153 controls), while the severity of pneumonia included 63 pre-fattening pigs (29 treated and 34 controls). VIUSID VET® promoted a positive asymmetry in ADG with more animals above the group mean, while the control showed a negative asymmetry. Treatment with VIUSID VET promoted a significantly lower prevalence of pneumonia (41.61 % vs. 62.74 %), as well as a trend towards lower severity of this disorder with mean values equivalent to those of half of the control group. The significant reduction in the prevalence of pneumonia promoted by VIUSID VET®, leads to expect that its use in swine herds will be accompanied by improvements in the productive performance with benefits in the producer's economy, as well as environmental benefits as an alternative to antibiotics.
