Abstract
“Poult enteritis mortality syndrome”. Poult enteritis mortality syndrome (PEMS) is an infectious, transmissible disease of incertain, but probable viral etiology, characterized by diarrhea, dehydratation, wheight-loss, anorexia, immunosuppression, growth depression (>40%) and high mortality (approaching 100% in young turkeys). The disease is a multifactorial one. Howewer the effect of infectious agents on the flock is determined by environmental, nutritional, and management factors. Current control strategies primarily involve management (in particular, enhanced biosecurity) and nutrition rather than conventional methods (vaccination and medication) used for infectious diseases.
