Characterization of the fecal microbiota of pigs before and after inoculation with "Brachyspira hampsonii". [PDF]
Brachyspira hampsonii causes disease indistinguishable from swine dysentery, and the structure of the intestinal microbiome likely plays a role in determining susceptibility of individual pigs to infection and development of clinical disease.

Diet has been implicated as a major factor impacting clinical disease expression of swine dysentery and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae colonization. However, the impact of diet on novel pathogenic strongly beta-hemolytic Brachyspira spp.

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 ...

Implementation and evaluation of different eradication strategies for Brachyspira hyodysenteriae
Background Brachyspira infections are causing major losses to the pig industry and lead to high antimicrobial use. Treatment of Brachyspira (B.) hyodysenteriae infections may be problematic due to the high level of antimicrobial resistance.

Brachyspira hyodysenteriae is the principal cause of swine dysentery, a disease that threatens economic productivity of pigs in many countries as it can spread readily within and between farms, and only a small number of antimicrobials are authorized for

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.

Role of sialic acid in brachyspira hyodysenteriae adhesion to pig colonic mucins [PDF]
Infection with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae results in mucoid hemorrhagic diarrhea. This pathogen is associated with the colonic mucus layer, mainly composed of mucins. Infection regulates mucin O-glycosylation in the colon and increases mucin secretion as

IntroductionInfection with strongly β-hemolytic strains of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae leads to swine dysentery (SD), a production-limiting disease that causes mucohemorrhagic diarrhea and typhlocolitis in pigs.

Bacterial Whack-a-Mole: Reconsidering the Public Health Relevance of Using Carbadox in Food Animals
Carbadox is an antibiotic used to control dysentery and promote growth in swine in the United States; however, the drug also causes tumors and birth defects in laboratory animals.
