The Effect of Aureomycin on the Gut of Pig

“…Antibiotics given in the diet have been shown to reduce the weight of the chick's intestine; Gordon (1952) demonstrated this effectwith penicillin, and Pepper, Slinger & Motzok (1953) with aureomycin (chlortetracycline). In our own studies with chicks (Coates, 1953;Coates, Davies&Kon, 1955)wefound amarkedreduction intheweightof the small intestine when procaine penicillin was given in the diet, but were unable to obtain evidence of any chemical or histological changes to account for the loss. The experiments reported here have been undertaken to study whether or not antibiotics have a similar effect on the pig's gut.…”
