Regional limb injection or systemic medication for the treatment of septic lameness in sows
Reducing the use of antimicrobials in food-producing animals may be achieved through more widespread use of RLP. Regional intravenous limb perfusion of an antimicrobial to treat lameness is feasible in swine.
Antimicrobial resistance of faecal E. coli isolates from pig farms with different durations of in-feed antimicrobial use
The greatest frequencies of resistance were observed to tetracycline, trimethoprim/sulphamethoxazole and streptomycin with the highest levels of resistance observed in isolates from first-stage weaned pigs.
Emergence of a novel highly pathogenic PRRSV in China
This study showed that the novel variant PRRSV was HP-PRRSV, and it is therefore critical to monitor PRRSV evolution in China and develop a method for controlling PRRS.
Evaluation of biosecurity measures to prevent indirect transmission of PEDv
PEDV transmission through contaminated PPE occurs rapidly under modeled conditions. Biosecurity procedures are recommended.
Antimicrobial potential of bacteriocins in swine production
This review provides an update on bacteriocins and their potential for use in the swine industry.
Adenovirus-vectored vaccine confers protection against FMDV O1 Manisa in swine
Recombinant Ad5-O1Man is an effective, safe and cross-reacting vaccine that could potentially be used preventively and in outbreak situations, to control FMDV O Mya-98 lineage in swine.
Effects of dietary supplementation with freshwater microalgae on gut health in weaned piglets
Dietary supplementation with microalgae as an alternative to antibiotic use was studied.
Detection of genome, antigen, and antibodies in oral fluids from pigs infected with foot-and-mouth disease virus
These results further demonstrated the potential use of oral fluids for detecting FMDV genome, live virus, and viral antigens.
Diversity of Yersinia enterocolitica in French slaughterhouses
It is important to study the diversity of the strains of Yersinia enterocolitica in order to better understand the risk they represent for humans.
Dietary supplementation of Enterococcus faecium, mannan oligosaccharide and benzoic acid in fattening pigs
Dietary combination of probiotics, prebiotics and organic acids improve growth, health and immunity in fattening pigs.
Detection of a novel circovirus PCV3 in pigs with cardiac and multi-systemic inflammation
In all three cases we characterized the genome of a new circovirus we called PCV3.
Frequent isolation of MRSA ST398 among healthy pigs in Portugal
This study showed a massive occurrence of ST398-MRSA in two independent swine farms.
Molecular evolution of PRRS viruses circulating in Vietnam from 2007 to 2015
This study expands existing knowledge on the genetic diversity and evolution of PRRSV in Vietnam.
In-feed organic acids as a strategy to combat Salmonella in growing pigs
Sodium butyrate or a blend of formic and citric acid in feed may be considered as a cost-effective control measure to reduce Salmonella faecal shedding in commercial herds.
No clear effect of initiating vaccination on the amounts of prescribed antimicrobials
We studied the change in amounts of antimicrobials prescribed for weaners and finishers in Danish herds duriong 2007-2013 following initiation of vaccination against five common endemic infections.
