Serologic Evidence of Brucella and Pseudorabies in Mississippi Feral Swine
Feral swine (Sus scrofa) are an ever-increasing problem across the United States. Besides physical environmental damage that they cause, they may harbor and transmit a number of pathogens to humans, livestock, and other domestic animals. We sampled feral

Classical swine fever virus diversity and evolution
By analysing the nucleotide sequence data generated from both the E2 (gp55) and the NS5B genes of classical swine fever virus (CSFV), in addition to previously published data from the 5'NCR, we were able to divide 115 CSFV isolates into two major groups, five subgroups and two disparate isolates.

Factors associated with the introduction of classical swine fever virus into pig herds in the central area of the 1997/98 epidemic in the Netherlands [PDF]
A matched case-control study of 135 infected and 99 uninfected pig herds from the central area of the 1997 to 1998 epidemic of classical swine fever (CSF) in The Netherlands was undertaken to identify factors associated with the introduction of the virus.

Proteomic analysis of swine serum following highly virulent classical swine fever virus infection
Background Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) belongs to the genus Pestivirus within the family Flaviviridae. Virulent strains of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) cause severe disease in pigs characterized by immunosuppression, thrombocytopenia and ...

DETECTION OF CLASSICAL SWINE FEVER VIRUS BY RT-PCR IN WEST BENGAL, INDIA [PDF]
Classical swine fever is a deadly disease of swine, caused by a RNA virus. The present study has identified presence of the classical swine fever virus (CSFV) in pigs of West Bengal by one step reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) performed using 5’ NTR ...

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.

Distribution and Disease Prevalence of Feral Hogs in Missouri
No attempts have been made to document the distribution of feral hogs (Sus scrofa) in Missouri. Also, antibody prevalence for pseudorabies virus and swine brucellosis have not been reported from Missouri.

Activation and modulation of antiviral and apoptotic genes in pigs infected with classical swine fever viruses of high, moderate or low virulence [PDF]
The immune response to CSFV and the strategies of this virus to evade and suppress the pigs’ immune system are still poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated the transcriptional response in the tonsils, median retropharyngeal lymph node (MRLN), and ...
