Retrospective study on the eradication of Swine Dysentery (Brachyspira hyodysenteriae) in Switzerland [PDF]
Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd, 2019 The eradication of Swine Dysentery (infection with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae) within farm populations is extremely complex and its success is significantly linked to the compliance of pig farmers performing the onsite eradications, emphasizing the importance of their motivation. The present study focuses on the motivation and satisfaction of Swiss pig

Coinfection with Entamoeba polecki and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in a pig with severe diarrhea. [PDF]
J Vet Diagn Invest, 2019 Enteric disease in pigs is usually of multifactorial etiology, including infectious and non-infectious factors. In many cases of endemic diarrhea in weaner-to-finisher pigs, the combination of 2 or more microorganisms leads to aggravation of intestinal lesions and, consequently, clinical signs.

The in vitro effect of Garden Thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) extract on Brachyspira hyodysenteriae [PDF]
, 2016 Filtrates of a water extract of commercially available garden thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) were used for studying its possible bactericidal effect on Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, the causative agent of swine dysentery, by agar-diffusion technique.

The use of ELISAs for monitoring exposure of pig herds to Brachyspira hyodysenteriae [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2012 Swine dysentery (SD), a mucohaemorrhagic diarrhoeal disease of pigs, results from infection of the large intestine with the spirochaete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae. ELISA systems using whole spirochaete cells (WC) and the B. hyodysenteriae outer membrane lipoprotein Bhlp29.7 previously have been established as potential diagnostic tools for SD. However,

The levels of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae binding to porcine colonic mucins differ between individuals, and binding is increased to mucins from infected pigs with de novo MUC5AC synthesis [PDF]
, 2015 Brachyspira hyodysenteriae colonizes the pig colon, resulting in mucohemorrhagic diarrhea and growth retardation. Fecal mucus is a characteristic feature of swine dysentery; therefore, we investigated how the mucin environment changes in the colon during

Control of swine dysentery at national level in Sweden
Acta Veterinaria ScandinavicaBackground Swine dysentery, caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, is a severe pig disease. Resistance to tylosins is common and resistance to tiamulin has been reported since the 1990s. Still, dysentery is not notifiable to authorities.

Intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira share a partially conserved 26 kilobase genomic region with Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2008 Anaerobic intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira include both pathogenic and commensal species. The two best-studied members are the pathogenic species B. hyodysenteriae (the aetiological agent of swine dysentery) and B.

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The transport of live pigs poses a risk to on‐farm biosecurity. Trucks can carry pathogens with significant economic and health impacts, including antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) bacteria. This study aimed to investigate the microbiological contamination of trucks before and after loading, focusing on AMR bacteria and other major pathogens transmissible ...
