An update of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae serotyping

Research in Veterinary Science, 2017
Brachyspira (B.) hyodysenteriae the causative agent of swine dysentery (SD) has been divided into 9 serotypes on basis of its lipooligosaccharide (LOS). Knowledge on circulating serotypes in Europe, however, is rare. Regarding that immunity to SD is serotype specific an update of B. hyodysenteriae serotyping was undertaken.

Rapid isolation of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli from pigs

Veterinary Microbiology, 2005
The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the time required to isolate Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli from porcine faeces. This was done using previously described selective media (spectinomycin) S400, (colistin, vancomycin and spectinomycin) CVS and (spectinomycin, vancomycin, colistin, spiramycin and rifampin with swine

Risk factors for the infection with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in pig herds

Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2020
Swine dysentery (SD), caused by infection with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, is a serious disease in pig production worldwide. Quantitative risk factors triggering the occurrence of infection are unknown. The present case-control study aimed at identifying major risk factors related to presence of B. hyodysenteriae in pig herds.

Comparison of culture and biochemical tests with PCR for detection of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli

Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2006
Traditional culture and biochemical tests (CBT) were compared with PCR for sensitivity and detection of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli in seeded faeces and clinical samples from diarrhoeic pigs. A duplex PCR system was developed based on primers detecting the tlyA-gene of B. hyodysenteriae and the 16S rRNA-gene of B.

Survival of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and B. pilosicoli in terrestrial microcosms

Veterinary Microbiology, 2001
The survival of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli was investigated at 10 degrees C in laboratory microcosms consisting of soil, porcine faeces, and in soil mixed with 10% porcine faeces, respectively. By plate spreading, survival of B.

Serologic detection ofBrachyspira (Serpulina) hyodysenteriaeinfections

Animal Health Research Reviews, 2001
AbstractSwine dysentery (SD) caused by the intestinal spirocheteBrachyspira hyodysenteriaeis an economically important disease in pig-producing countries throughout the world. To date, no specific serologic assay is commercially available for the diagnosis of pigs with SD.

Occurrence of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in multiplier pig herds in Switzerland

Tierärztliche Praxis Ausgabe G: Großtiere / Nutztiere, 2016
SummaryObjective: This research was aimed to determine the occurrence of Brachyspira (B.) hyodysenteriae in Swiss multiplier pig herds. Materials and methods: In a pilot study a direct real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method for B. hyodysenteriae was compared to culture followed by PCR on 106 samples from three herds.

Immunomagnetic separation of the intestinal spirochaetes Brachyspira pilosicoli and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae from porcine faeces

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2004
Porcine intestinal spirochaetes are fastidious anaerobic organisms and, as a consequence, it has been necessary to develop various protocols to enhance their isolation from or detection in faeces. Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) is a method developed recently to improve separation of target cells from mixed cell suspensions.

Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in apparently healthy pig herds

Veterinary Record, 2018
The spirochaete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae causes swine dysentery, a potentially severe mucohaemorrhagic colitis of pigs that is endemic in many countries. Swine dysentery depresses growth, and can cause disruptions to pig trade and potential litigation if herds supplying replacement animals are infected.

[Multiresistant Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in a Dutch sow herd].

Tijdschrift voor diergeneeskunde, 2008
This case study describes the isolation ofa multiresistant strain ofBrachyspira hyodysenteriae in April 2007 in a Dutch sow herd with recurrent diarrhoea. Examination of faecal samples taken from 7-month-old breeding gilts with diarrhoea revealed the presence of resistance against tiamulin, lincomycin, tylosin, doxycycline, and tylvalosin (the active ...
