Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:-, a worldwide emerging pathogen that causes many foodborne outbreaks mostly attributed to pig and pig products, is expanding in the U.S.

The interaction between dietary Arginine content and ZnO supplementation may play a negative impact on the antioxidant capacity and inflammatory response in weanling pigs.

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.

In late 2015, an avian-origin H4N6 influenza A virus was isolated from pigs in the United States.

This study assessed the efficacy of two different Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae vaccination programmes in relation to the time of weaning.

EP-like lesions and pleuritis are routinely identified in slaughter pigs in England. EP-like lesions and pleuritis are significantly associated with a reduction in carcass weight. Endemic pig respiratory diseases remain economically important.

Isolation and propagation of the pathogen in cell culture resulted in discovery of a novel swine enteric alphacoronavirus (tentatively named SeACoV) related to the bat coronavirus HKU2.

Influenza is a costly disease for pig producers and understanding its epidemiology is critical to control it.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of vaccination against PCV2 in a sub-clinically infected, high-health finishing herd in terms of viral load in serum, feed conversion ratio and antimicrobial treatments.

In practice, delaying pigs from the normal production flow translates into higher feeding costs, increase number of days to slaughter and increased labour requirements reducing production efficiency for the pig operation.

Besides dosing factors, epidemiological factors (such as number of competing strains and bacterial excretion) influenced resistance development and need to be considered further in relation to optimal treatment strategies.

Here we describe a new LAV candidate with unique cross-protective abilities: BA71ΔCD2. Thus, inoculation of BA71ΔCD2 protected pigs not only against the experimental challenge with BA71, the virulent parental strain, but also against heterologous viruses, including Georgia 2007/1, the genotype II strain of ASFV currently circulating in East Europe.

The first outbreaks of SVV infection in Brazil were reported in 2014. However, it was not known whether the virus was circulating in Brazilian pig herds before this year.

An effective gilt acclimation program should ideally reduce M. hyopneumoniae shedding at first farrowing. The aim of this study was to identify current acclimation strategies for M. hyopneumoniae in Europe.

The unexpected frequency of viral exchange between commercial and exhibition swine raises questions about the understudied interface between these populations.

There are only few data on the persistence and transmission of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) of the clonal complex (CC) 398 among veterinarians and their household members.
