Effect of parity segregation on Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae infection dynamics and pneumonic lesions in pigs

Ciênc. rural (Online); 52 (2), 2022
Gilts represent a group risk for Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae vertical transmission in swine herds. Therefore, parity segregation can be an alternative to control M. hyopneumoniae infections. The study evaluated the effect of parity segregation on M. hyopneumoniae infection dynamics and occurrence and severi...

Characteristics of faecal bacterial flora and volatile fatty acids in Min pig, Landrace pig, and Yorkshire pig

BACKGROUND In order to study the influence of long-term growth process and evolution environment on intestinal bacteria of different breeds, the intestinal bacteria and volatile fatty acids among the faeces of Min, Landrace and Yorkshire pigs were analysed by Illumina high-throughput sequencing of the 16...

Use of oral fluids to detect anti Lawsonia intracellularis antibodies in experimentally infected pigs

Pesqui. vet. bras; 40 (12), 2020
Several pathogens and antibodies derived from serum or produced in tissues associated with the oral cavity are present in the oral fluid (OF). Considering the applicability of this alternative sample, recent studies in veterinary medicine have tested OF as a replacement for serum in diagnostic assays. Th...

Erisipela suína: relato de caso no município de Cachoeiras de Macacu-RJ

Rev. bras. ciênc. vet; 27 (2), 2020
Na suinocultura perdas econômicas ainda são elevadas devido aos baixos padrões de qualidade e sanidade dos animais. Dentre as afecções que afetam a produção, a erisipela é uma doença considerada importante em função dos prejuízos econômicos que causa, e pela questão de saúde pública visto...

Occurrence of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in slaughter pigs from Southern Brazil

Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the causative agent of enzootic pneumonia (EP), a disease that is highly prevalent and globally distributed, causing significant economic losses to the swine industry. Disease progression is characterized by reduced feed conversion and the development of lung lesions. Consider...

Adherence to and invasion of HeLa cells by Campylobacter spp. strains isolated from animals

Pesqui. vet. bras; 38 (7), 2018
The objective of this study was to evaluate the adherence to and invasion of HeLa cells by Campylobacter spp. strains (total n=63) isolated from chickens (n=4), dogs (n=4), non-human primates (n=16), pigs (n=9), calf feces (n=18), and bovine genital tracts (n=12). Thirty-two strains adhered to and 13 inv...

Comparative genomics of pathogenic Leptospira interrogans serovar Canicola isolated from swine and human in Brazil

Mem. Inst. Oswaldo Cruz; 113 (2), 2018
Leptospira interrogans serovar Canicola is one of the most important pathogenic serovars for the maintenance of urban leptospirosis. Even though it is considered highly adapted to dogs, serovar Canicola infection has already been described in other animals and even a few human cases. Here, we present the...
