Detection of Atypical Porcine Pestivirus in Piglets from Danish Sow Herds
Viruses, 2021 Atypical porcine pestivirus (APPV) was first discovered in North America in 2015 and was later shown to be associated with congenital tremor (CT) in piglets. CT is an occasional challenge in some Danish sow herds. Therefore, we initiated an observational

Absence of Evidence of Porcine Circovirus Infection in Piglets with Congenital Tremors [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2003 Porcine circovirus types 1 (PCV1) and 2 (PCV2) have been associated with congenital tremors (CTs) in piglets in the United States. In this study, central nervous system and nonneural tissues of 40 CT piglets from Spain, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Sweden were investigated for the presence of PCV1 and PCV2 using in situ hybridization and ...
