When foetuses develop in a heat-stressed gestation sow, a condition known as in utero heat stress occurs, and piglets may be born smaller with impaired gut microbiome and immune function. Additionally, these piglets show greater susceptibility to stress later in life. Although these consequences are not always immediately apparent, they are important to manage and prevent.
The virus detected in Barcelona is ASF genotype II and has been classified in a new genetic group: #29.

Among the elements that are often overlooked is the microbiota, a true "invisible organ" that plays a key role in the health, immunity, and productivity of pigs. Understanding its dynamics and how it becomes imbalanced is increasingly essential for the success of health and nutrition programs.
Initial injuries at the tip of the ear are usually due to chewing behavior, while injuries at the base of the ear appear to be influenced by feeder-related bites.

To complement the necropsy course, we have produced a series of videos of different processes in pigs.
It turned out to be much easier than it seemed...
The flu is very much in the media spotlight, so we wanted to find out how much our users know about influenza's role in pigs and humans. To do this, we conducted a mini survey among our users.
Zone one, for surveillance, is where no cases have been reported, and zone two covers the area where outbreaks have been detected.
In addition to its role in protein synthesis, tryptophan contributes to the production of serotonin, a molecule that influences appetite and immune system regulation, and niacin production.
Effective PRDC control isn’t a single protocol — it’s a system. Success depends on accurate diagnosis, tailored vaccination, strong biosecurity, smart production flow, and, above all, consistent implementation. As Cano said, “Execution is everything. The best protocol won’t work if no one’s watching the barn.”
Intestinal immunity is a complex system composed of physical barriers, immune cells, receptors, and microbiota.
An updated summary regarding the African swine fever outbreak situation in Spain.
What can we do to protect ourselves from influenza? And to protect pigs?
Influenza is a significant respiratory disease that affects not only pigs but also human health. The actions of personnel who have access to pigs directly influence the disease's impact. In this short survey, we want to know if you take steps to reduce the risk of spreading influenza.
In this second instalment, Cano and Segalés talk about tools for detecting PRDC on farms, the factors influencing its development, and vaccination.
Take a look back at our most popular articles of the year.
Given the current situation, any help in combating African swine fever is welcome.
Current data does not allow confirmation that the ASF viral strain came from any laboratory, according to the sequencing performed by the IRB.
Jean Paul Cano, a veterinarian with extensive field experience in US and now in Spain, provided practical field insights into managing PRDC in production settings. Joaquim Segalés, UAB professor and CReSA researcher, offered an academic perspective and share the latest findings on PRDC pathogenesis.
There are times when the present we were expecting isn't what we get...
