The available literature on necrotic enteritis in broiler chickens is reviewed. The records of three poultry diagnostic laboratories in Ontario were examined for the years 1969, 1970 and 1971. During this period 855 (7.7%) of 11,076 consignments of broiler chickens examined were diagnosed as necrotic enteritis. The condition was most common in broilers at three weeks of age, with 66% of all cases occurring in chickens between two and four and one half weeks. The disease occurred throughout the year but it was most common during July, August, September and October. Necrotic enteritis often occurred more than once per year on a farm.
综述了关于肉鸡坏死性肠炎的现有文献。对安大略省三个家禽诊断实验室1969年、1970年和1971年的记录进行了检查。在此期间,在检查的11076批肉鸡中,有855批(7.7%)被诊断为坏死性肠炎。这种疾病在三周龄的肉鸡中最为常见,所有病例的66%发生在两周至四周半的鸡身上。该病全年都有发生,但在7月、8月、9月和10月最为常见。坏死性肠炎在一个农场中每年常常发生不止一次。
