Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus – a case report of sudden death in a German sow farm
A farm in North-West Germany experienced a high morbidity and mortality in their sow herd. Sows showed fever, lethargy, oedema, mucosal discharge and dyspnoea. Necropsy revealed a severe fibrinous and purulent polyserositis.

Biosynthesis of Classical Swine Fever Virus Nonstructural Proteins [PDF]
ABSTRACT Proteolytic processing of polyproteins is considered a crucial step in the life cycle of most positive-strand RNA viruses. An enhancement of NS2-3 processing has been described as a major difference between the noncytopathogenic (non-CP) and the cytopathogenic (CP) biotypes of pestiviruses.

Experimental pig-to-pig transmission dynamics for African swine fever virus, Georgia 2007/1 strain [PDF]
African swine fever virus (ASFV) continues to cause outbreaks in domestic pigs and wild boar in Eastern European countries. To gain insights into its transmission dynamics, we estimated the pig-to-pig basic reproduction number (R 0) for the Georgia 2007 ...

Mutations in Classical Swine Fever Virus NS4B Affect Virulence in Swine [PDF]
ABSTRACT NS4B is one of the nonstructural proteins of classical swine fever virus (CSFV), the etiological agent of a severe, highly lethal disease of swine. Protein domain analysis of the predicted amino acid sequence of the NS4B protein of highly pathogenic CSFV strain Brescia (BICv) identified a putative Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR ...

Close Relationship of Ruminant Pestiviruses and Classical Swine Fever Virus
To determine why serum from small ruminants infected with ruminant pestiviruses reacted positively to classical swine fever virus (CSFV)–specific diagnostic tests, we analyzed 2 pestiviruses from Turkey.
