(MDPI, 2021-05-14)
African swine fever (ASF) is today′s number one threat for the global swine industry. Neither commercial vaccine nor treatment is available against ASF and, thus far, only live attenuated viruses (LAV) ...
Diversity of respiratory viruses present in nasal swabs under influenza suspicion in respiratory disease cases of weaned pigs
(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-19)
Respiratory diseases in weaned pigs are a common problem, with a complex etiology involving both viruses and bacteria. In the present study, we investigated the presence of eleven viruses in nasal swabs, ...
