Assessment of the economic impact of PRRS virus on United States pork producers
Despite over 25 years of experience and research, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome remains a costly disease of pigs in the United States.
MRSA in pigs and farm workers on conventional and antibiotic-free swine farms in the USA
These results confirm the presence of LA-MRSA in pigs and swine farm workers in the USA, but the prevalence found is relatively low compared with European studies.
Experimental reproduction of brachyspiral colitis in pigs infected with Brachyspira hampsonii
The present study successfully demonstrated the experimental reproduction of the brachyspiral colitis caused by “B hampsonii”.
Efficacy of in-feed medication with chlortetracycline in a farrow-to-finish herd against a clinical outbreak of respiratory disease in fattening pigs
CTC, when administered at onset of clinical respiratory disease via the feed at a dose of 500 ppm during two alternative weeks, was able to decrease the prevalence of pneumonia lesions.
Novel molecular type of Clostridium difficile in neonatal pigs, Western Australia
We investigated C. difficile prevalence in piglets in Australia and isolated a novel strain with a unique pathogenicity locus.
Histopathological investigation in porcine infected with torque teno sus virus type 2 by inoculation
This study indicated a directly related description of lesions responsible for TTSuV2 infection in swine.
Survey of quantitative antimicrobial consumption in two different pig finishing systems
Overall percentages of animals exposed to antimicrobials (AM) were high (90 per cent in finisher farms and 54 per cent FtF farms).
Vaccination of sows reduces the prevalence of PCV-2 viraemia in their piglets under field conditions
Under the study conditions, dam vaccination reduced PCV-2 viraemia in the offspring with colostrum access.
Dietary β-glucan on growth performance, faecal microbial and immunity in weaned pigs
β-glucan could improve growth performance and immune function in weaned piglets.
Dietary non-starch polysaccharides alter the abundance of pathogenic clostridia in pigs
High-fermentable NSP may reduce the intestinal abundance of swine pathogenic clostridia.
Noninfectious factors associated with pneumonia and pleuritis in slaughter‐aged pigs
A cross‐sectional study was carried out in 143 farrow‐to‐finish herds to identify non‐infectious factors associated with pneumonia and pleuritis in slaughter‐aged pigs.
Impact of genetic variation and geographic distribution of PRRSV on infectivity and pig growth
The PRRSV genetic variability which is determined by a local and temporal evolution at the farm level could be considered in a perspective of prevention.
Characterization of homologous and heterologous adaptive immune responses in porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus infection
The present study characterized the homologous and heterologous immune response in type-I porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection.
Isolation of Brachyspira hampsonii from migrating waterfowl in Spain
Different species of waterfowl should be considered a potential source of B. hampsonii for swine.
An investigation into the association between cpb2-encoding Clostridium perfringens type A and diarrhea in neonatal piglets
The number of cpb2-positive type A C. perfringens in the intestinal contents was not a useful approach for making a diagnosis of type A C. perfringens enteritis in piglets.
