The objectives of this study were to determine if co-infection of piglets with PRRSV and PCV2 has any affect on PCV2 shedding characteristics and if there are differences in shedding patterns between PCV2 subtypes (PCV2a and PCV2b) in co-infected pigs.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the importance of clonal spread of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae resistant to pleuromutilins (tiamulin, valnemulin) on farms in the Czech Republic.

The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of this disorder by conducting a comprehensive evaluation of gut health and function during early and chronic stages of PFTS.

This study demonstrated a clear benefit in vaccinating pigs subclinically infected with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) with a one-dose PCV2 vaccine.

We evaluated the efficacy of serum inoculation to immunize gilts in prevention of reproductive PRRS following late-gestation challenge with the “homologous” virus.

Yeast fermentation products showed better performance, especially in the presence of the active enteric disease.

Researchers of the CReSA have demonstrated the relevance of the host nucleus during ASFV infection. These discoveries might have important implications when searching for antiviral strategies against ASF that is currently causing real economical problems in many sub-Saharan countries and knocking at the door of the EU.

Elimination of infectious PCV2 from the breeding-herd site, the outcome after repopulation, and the attempt to derive PCV2-negative animals by offsite segregation are summarized.

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of cross-fostering on transfer of maternal Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae-specific humoral and cell-mediated immunity (CMI) from gilts to piglets.

This study was conducted to describe the disease ecology of influenza virus in infected swine breeding farms.

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of disinfection protocols on porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) in 1:61 scale model livestock trailers and determine the infectivity of PCV2 DNA detected using a bioassay.

The objective of this research was to quantify the likelihood of PRRSV transmission via aerosol as a function of exposure dose. This data is critical to understanding of airborne transmission of PRRSV between pigs, within herds, and between herds.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between serum PRRSv PCR positives and oral fluids PRRSv PCR positives, to evaluate the detection dynamics between serum and oral fluids PRRSv PCR positives, and to determine the effects of pooling samples.

Area regional disease control (ARDC) strategies are an important tool in the swine industry due to the ability of many swine diseases, most notably PRRS, to spread by methods other than direct animal contact.

The objectives of this study were to determine if oral fluid samples 1) could be collected from individually-housed mature boars under field conditions and 2) could be used to detect PRRSV infection.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate a blocking ELISA in the detection of serum antibodies to Lawsonia intracellularis, by comparison to the previously widely used immunofluorescent antibody test (IFAT).
