Descriptive analyses of maternally-derived antibody levels against porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) in 3-and 21-day-old piglets from farms of four European countries using different vaccination protocols in sows
(BMC, 2022-10-03)
Background
Up to now, information on the levels of maternally-derived antibodies (MDA) against PCV-2 in suckling piglets born to sows vaccinated with different strategies is scarce in the literature. ...
Blocking transmission of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) in llamas by vaccination with a recombinant spike protein
(Taylor & Francis Open, 2019-11-12)
The ongoing Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) outbreaks pose a worldwide public health threat. Blocking MERS-CoV zoonotic transmission from dromedary camels, the animal reservoir, ...
Immune response development after vaccination of 1-day-old naïve pigs with a Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome 1-based modified live virus vaccine
(BMC, 2019-02-02)
Background
The development of the innate and adaptive immune responses to Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) after vaccination of 1 day-old pigs with a PRRSV-1 based modified ...
Deletion of E184L, a Putative DIVA Target from the Pandemic Strain of African Swine Fever Virus, Produces a Reduction in Virulence and Protection against Virulent Challenge
(American Society for Microbiology, 2022-01-12)
African swine fever (ASF) is currently causing a major pandemic affecting the swine industry and protein availability from Central Europe to East and South Asia. No commercial vaccines are available, ...
The immune response does not prevent homologous Porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus reinfection five months after the initial challenge
(Wiley, 2021-03-04)
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the duration of protective immunity against Porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV). To do so, a two phases study was performed. In the first phase, 75 ...
Machine Learning Prediction of Crossbred Pig Feed Efficiency and Growth Rate From Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
(Frontiers Media, 2020-12-18)
This research assessed the ability of a Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression model to predict pig crossbred (CB) performance from various sources of phenotypic and genotypic information for improving ...
Uptake and Survival of African Swine Fever Virus in Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) and Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) Larvae
(MDPI, 2022-12-28)
Insect production offers a sustainable source of nutrients for livestock. This comes with a risk for transmission of pathogens from the insects into the livestock sector, including viruses causing serious ...
Diagnostic accuracy of two DNA‐based molecular assays for detection of porcine circovirus 3 in swine population using Bayesian latent class analysis
(Wiley, 2019-09-28)
Molecular‐based tools sometimes are the only laboratory techniques available to detect a recently discovered agent, and their validation without the existence of previously described ‘gold standard’ ...
Respiratory disorders of farmed rabbits: occurrence and risk factors
(Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, 2023-09-28)
In this study, we focused on the occurrence of respiratory disorders in rabbit farms, as well as
several risk factors. We based the assessment on 11 217 visits to 1288 commercial farms in Spain ...
Low CD4/CD8 ratio in classical swine fever postnatalpersistent infection generated at 3 weeks after birth
(Wiley, 2018-11-20)
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is one of the most important pathogens affectingswine. After infection with a moderate virulence strain at 8 hours after birth, CSFV isable to induce viral persistence. ...
