Enteritis is one of the commonest disease problems of the modern swine industry. The term enteritis applies to any inflammatory condition of the small intestine, but is used frequently to refer to any pathological condition of the digestive tract. The phenomenon, which is the common sequel to different kinds of adverse stimuli is an inflammation of the mucous membrane of the gastro-intestinal tract. Diarrhea which is a symptom, rather than a disease by itself, is a consequence of the inflammation of the alimentary tract brought about by any type of irritant of chemical, dietary, or microbial origin. Specific microorganisms are thought to be the cause of infectious types of diarrhea but the relationship is not completely understood.
