Comparison of the Fecal Microbiota in Horses With Equine Metabolic Syndrome and Metabolically Normal Controls Fed a Similar All-Forage Diet

2016-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) is an ever-increasing problem in the equine industry, especially considering that it is a risk factor for the development of laminitis. Equine metabolic syndrome is similar to metabolic syndrome in humans, which has been associated with alterations in intestinal microbiota. However, no work to date has been published to characterize the fecal microbiota in the EMS horse to determine...
