Lawsonia intracellularis
Lawsonia intracellularis is responsible for Porcine Proliferative Enteropathy, also know as ileitis, a problematic and costly disease that needs to be eradicated by pig farming disinfection. Halamid® is one of the very few disinfectants for pig farming proven effective against Lawsonia intracellularis : a 0.3% Halamid® solution with a contact time of 30 min effectively kills the bacteria (McOrist, 2005).
