Swine dysentery is a severe enteric disease in pigs, which is characterized by bloody to mucoid diarrhea and associated with reduced growth performance and variable mortality. This disease is most often observed in grower–finisher pigs, wherein susceptible pigs develop a significant mucohemorrhagic typhlocolitis following infection with strongly ...

ANTIMICROBIAL SENSITIVITY TEST OF BRACHYSPIRA SPP. ISOLATE FROM SWINE IN TAIWAN
Intro: Brachyspira spp. can induce mucohemorrhagic diarrhea known as swine dysentery (SD) in weaning to finishing pigs. The brachyspira is transmitted via the fecal-oral route and causes massive economic losses due to a slower rate of pig growth.

Porcine circovirus 2 vaccination timing was not associated with piglets’ serological response
Abstract Background The development of immunity in pigs starts in utero, but piglets are born immunologically immature and rely on maternal antibodies. Weaning exposes piglets to multiple stressors, yet vaccination is commonly performed around weaning.

The fastidious nature of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae limits an accurate in vitro pre-screening of conventionally used antibiotics and other candidate alternative antimicrobials. This results in a non-judicious use of antibiotics, leading to an exponential

Intestinal parasites are shared among humans and domestic animals. Rural setting is critical to enhance parasite zoonosis in Nepal. ABSTRACT Intestinal parasitic (IP) species with zoonotic significance are major public health issues, mostly prevalent in developing countries, leading to high morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to assess the
