Interlaboratory Testing of Porcine Sera for Antibodies to Porcine Circovirus Type 2 [PDF]
A panel of 20 porcine sera was distributed to 5 laboratories across Europe and Canada. Each center was requested to test the sera for the presence of porcine circovirus type 2 antibodies using the routine assays, indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and indirect immunoperoxidase monolayer assay (IPMA), and to determine the titer of each serum ...

Detection and analysis of porcine circovirus type 2 in the Irish pig population [PDF]
Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) is a recently emerged multifactorial clinical disease of swine that affects nursery and growing pigs and PCV2 is believed to be the main aetiological agent of the disease. PMWS has emerged in Ireland as a

Association of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 With Vascular Lesions in Porcine Pneumonia [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the vasculature in porcine circovirus type 2–infected (PCV2-infected) lungs and to identify the PCV2 subtypes involved in porcine pneumonia. Pulmonary samples from 140 pigs, 2 weeks to 7 months of age, from 36 Hungarian commercial herds with clinical signs of respiratory disease were examined for the presence of ...

Genetic characterization of porcine circovirus type 2 from pigs with porcine circovirus associated diseases in Argentina [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) has been associated with syndromes grouped by the term porcine circovirus associated diseases (PCVAD). The PCV-2 isolates have been grouped into two major groups or genotypes according to their nucleotide sequence of ...

Characterization of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 in Taiwan
In an effort to understand the genetic diversity of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and the prevalence of PCV2 infection in Taiwanese herds, we have sequenced the complete genomes from PCV2-infected specimens and individually measured the antibody titer against PCV2 from pigs reared in Taiwan between the years 2000 and 2002.

Exploitation of stable nanostructures based on the mouse polyomavirus for development of a recombinant vaccine against porcine circovirus 2. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to develop a suitable vaccine antigen against porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2), the causative agent of post-weaning multi-systemic wasting syndrome, which causes significant economic losses in swine breeding.

Infectivity of porcine circovirus (PCV) 1 and PCV2 was examined in primary porcine hepatocyte culture by comparing that of PCV in primary kidney cell culture. The virus titer of PCV2-infected hepatocyte cultures was higher than that of the PCV1-infected hepatocyte cultures and the PCV-infected kidney cell cultures.

A case report of porcine circovirus 3 (PCV3) reproductive disease in Iberian semi-outdoor reared sows [PDF]
Background Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV3) is a recently discovered swine pathogen associated with reproductive disease. To date, clinical problems linked to PCV3 have been described in intensive rearing pig farms.

Three different genotypes of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) identified in pigs and warthogs in Namibia
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is the causative agent of porcine circovirus diseases (PCVD). A study was undertaken to determine whether PCV-2 was present in samples collected from commercial pigs (n = 46) and warthogs (n = 42) in Namibia between 2019 and ...
