Metabolic insights and background from naturally affected pigs during Streptococcus suis outbreaks
(Oxford University Press, 2023-11-06)
Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is an endemic zoonotic pathogen still lacking adequate prevention in pigs. The present case study looked back to the
occurrence and consequences of S. suis outbreaks in our ...
The emergence and diversification of a zoonotic pathogen from within the microbiota of intensively farmed pigs
(National Academy of Sciences, 2023-11-14)
The expansion and intensification of livestock production is predicted to promote the
emergence of pathogens. As pathogens sometimes jump between species, this can affect
the health of humans as well ...
Ceftiofur treatment of sows results in long‑term alterations in the nasal microbiota of the ofspring that can be ameliorated by inoculation of nasal colonizers
(BMC, 2023-10-20)
Background The nasal microbiota of the piglet is a reservoir for opportunistic pathogens that can cause polyse‑
rositis, such as Glaesserella parasuis, Mycoplasma hyorhinis or Streptococcus suis. ...
Intensive antibiotic treatment of sows with parenteral crystalline ceftiofur and tulathromycin alters the composition of the nasal microbiota of their ofspring
(BMC, 2023-11-24)
The nasal microbiota plays an important role in animal health and the use of antibiotics is a major factor that infu‑
ences its composition. Here, we studied the consequences of an intensive antibiotic ...
Molecular characterization of Glaesserella parasuis strains circulating in North American swine production systems
(BMC, 2023-08-28)
Background Glaesserella parasuis is the causative agent of Glässer’s disease in pigs. Serotyping is the most common
method used to type G. parasuis isolates. However, the high number of non-typables ...
Immune responses following neonatal vaccination with conserved F4 fragment of VtaA proteins from virulent Glaesserella parasuis adjuvanted with CAF®01 or CDA
(Elsevier, 2023-06-10)
Glaesserella parasuis is a Gram-negative bacterium that colonizes the upper airways of swine, capable of causing a systemic infection called Glässer’s disease. This disease is more frequent in young ...
Risk factors associated withStreptococcus suiscases on pigfarms in Spain
(Wiley, 2023-06-03)
Background
Streptococcus suis can cause meningitis, polyarthritis and acute death in piglets. However, the risk factors associated with S. suis infection remain incompletely understood. Therefore, a ...
