Clinical case: Increase of returns: Management or PRRS?
Returns increase in a PRRS-positive farm in the middle of a census increase plus a change of management in the batch farrowing system, from 3 weeks to 1.

PRRSV sequencing and its use in practice
It is very important to analyze new PRRSV sequences against a broad reference set representing the farm, the system and the region, as well as the sequences of available commercial vaccines (this will make it possible to differentiate between field and vaccine strains).
Topigs Norsvin implements PRRS resistance in breeding value estimation
Topigs Norsvin has recently implemented selection for increased natural resistance to PRRS by using the WUR SNP in breeding value estimation.
2018 European PRRS Research Award open for submissions until July 1st
Boehringer Ingelheim funds three research projects against swine disease PRRS with a total of €75,000
Detection of PRRSV-specific IgM-IgA in oral fluid samples reveals PRRSV infection in the presence of maternal antibody
In the field, the combined ELISA detected infection in the face of colostral IgG. In growing pigs, the IgM-IgA ELISA is a promising tool for PRRSV surveillance.
Wisconsin adopts new swine rules
New rules requiring swine entering or moving within Wisconsin to originate from a herd that has been tested for PRRS and SECD.
2018 International PRRS Symposium
The 2018 International PRRS Symposium (IPRRS2018) will be held in Chongqing, China from June 11 to 12, in conjunction with The 25th International Pig Veterinary Science Congress (IPVS2018) to provide a world-class meeting dedicated to swine health.
The use of oral fluids to monitor key pathogens in porcine respiratory disease complex
This study set out to describe detection patterns of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), swine influenza virus type A (SIV) and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (M. hyo) among farms showing differing severity of PRDC.
Zoetis Launches Suvaxyn® PRRS MLV In the European Union
New modified live vaccine (MLV) against Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) virus for the active immunization of pigs.
Protect fetuses from infection with PRRSV
In this study, CD163-positive fetuses were completely protected from PRRSV in dams possessing a complete knockout of the CD163 receptor.
Surveillance of PRRSV in the United States using risk mapping and species distribution modeling
The results will help in the design and implementation of early detection, prevention, and control strategies for one of the most devastating diseases affecting the swine industry in the U.S.
The Dr. Morrison Swine Health Monitoring Project
Dr. Robert Morrison created the Swine Health Monitoring Project in 2011 and, after his tragic loss, in May 2017 the program was renamed.
Biosecurity in PRRSV control
What is a priority and what is not? It depends on the risks and the PRRSV status of the farm…
The microbiome and viral infections
This article relates different microbiome profiles to greater or lesser severity in clinical signs, lesions and viral load in a co-infection with PRRS and PCV2 viruses, opening a window of opportunity.
Use of processing fluids for PRRSV diagnostics
We propose to use the processing fluids, the liquid accumulated at the bottom of the pail when farmers collect tails and testicles during routine procedures as a sample.
OptisampleTM optimises the sampling strategies in the active surveillance of animal diseases
Online tool to help in the sampling strategies with the aim of proving that a farm is PRRSV-negative.
