Induction of porcine post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in pigs from PMWS unaffected herds following mingling with pigs from PMWS-affected herds [PDF]
In this paper we present the results from two experimental studies (I and II) investigating whether post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) can be induced in pigs from PMWS unaffected herds by mingling with pigs from PMWS-affected herds and to observe whether transportation and/or mingling of healthy pigs from unaffected herds could induce ...

The index herd with PMWS in Sweden: Presence of serum amyloid A, circovirus 2 viral load and antibody levels in healthy and PMWS-affected pigs [PDF]
Background Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) is an emerging disease in pigs of multifactorial origin, but associated to porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection. PMWS was first diagnosed in Sweden at a progeny test station that received

Examination for a viral co-factor in postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) [PDF]
In order to test the hypothesis that a putative co-factor for the development of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in pigs could be of viral origin, we performed extensive virological examinations on organ material from pigs diagnosed with PMWS originating from within a Danish PMWS-transmission study.

Interaction between host cell proteins and open reading frames of porcine circovirus type 2 [PDF]
Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is caused by a systemic inflammation after porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) infection. It was one of the most economically important pathogens affecting pig production worldwide before PCV2 vaccine was ...

Postweaning mulstisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in pigs. A review
Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome, caused by porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), is a recently described clinical condition which affects nursery and growing pigs. PMWS was initially recognized in Canada in 1991 and nowadays is considered to be worldwide distributed.

Development and application of a quadruplex real-time PCR method for Torque teno sus virus 1, Porcine circovirus type 2, pseudorabies virus, and porcine parvovirus [PDF]
IntroductionIn clinical diagnosis of porcine diseases, co-infection with multiple viruses often leads to similar clinical symptoms. Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) can be caused by infections with TTSuV or PCV2, while PCV2, PRV, and PPV
