The prevalence of porcine teschovirus in the pig population in northeast of China

Journal of Virological Methods, 2013
The prevalence of porcine teschovirus (PTV) in swine herds in northeast China was investigated. In 2008-2009, 1384 samples of pig sera were collected from 42 farms in Shandong, Hebei, Heilongjiang, and Jilin provinces and in Tianjin City and were tested for specific antibody against PTV-8 by immunofluorescence assay.

Isolation and characterization of the first Chinese strain of porcine Teschovirus-8

Journal of Virological Methods, 2010
Investigations were carried out to identify the causal agent of acute diarrhea, respiratory distress, and death of pigs on a swine farm in Jilin Province, northern China. Only porcine Teschovirus (PTV, designated as PTV-8 Jilin/2003) was isolated from samples of organs. The presence of PTV was confirmed by the production of a specific cytopathic effect

Isolation of serotype 2 porcine teschovirus in China: Evidence of natural recombination

Veterinary Microbiology, 2010
Porcine teschovirus (PTV), the pathogen of porcine polioencephalomyelitis, is a member of the family Picornaviridae. In this study, a new PTV strain (designated as JF613) was isolated from pigs in China. It was confirmed by the specific CPE on susceptible cells, RT-PCR and nucleotide sequencing.

Multiple models of porcine teschovirus pathogenesis in endemically infected pigs

Veterinary Microbiology, 2014
Porcine teschoviruses (PTVs) belong to the genus Teschovirus within the family Picornaviridae. PTVs are universal contaminants in pig herds in endemic and multi-infection status. To further the understanding of PTV pathogenesis in endemically infected pigs, a set of samples was studied by real time reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) to quantitate ...

Identification and genotypic characterization of porcine teschovirus from selected pig populations in India

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2019
Porcine teschovirus (PTV) previously classified as porcine enteroviruses in the family Picornaviridae are associated with a wide range of illnesses in swine ranging from asymptomatic infection to acute fatal encephalomyelitis, diarrhea, and pneumonia. This study was planned to investigate whether porcine teschovirus is prevalent among pigs in India and

F-coliphages, porcine adenovirus and porcine teschovirus as potential indicator viruses of fecal contamination for pork carcass processing

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2017
There are concerns about the zoonotic transmission of viruses through undercooked pork products. There is a lack of information on suitable indicator viruses for fecal contamination with pathogenic enteric viruses in the meat processing chain. The study compared the incidence and levels of contamination of hog carcasses with F-coliphages, porcine ...

Pathological Changes in Pigs Experimentally Infected with Porcine Teschovirus

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2009
Nonsuppurative encephalomyelitis with neurological signs expressed as flaccid paralysis of the hindlimbs was experimentally induced in three-week-old piglets by a single intravenous injection of the Toyama 2002 strain of porcine teschovirus (PTV) isolated from field pigs in Japan.

New serotypes of porcine teschovirus identified in Shanghai, China

Archives of Virology, 2015
Teschoviruses are widely endemic and commonly found in pig fecal samples. In this study, we collected fecal specimens from various pig herds and genotyped them based on the VP1 gene. Of 322 samples, 276 were positive, giving a PTV infectivity rate of 85.7 %. PTV4 was the most common serotype found in Shanghai, followed by PTV8 and PTV10. Interestingly,
