Endoparasites of wild boars (Sus scrofa) in Primorsky Krai, Russia

Helminthologia, 2022
This study identified helminthic species among wild boars (Sus scrofa) in Primorsky Krai, Russia. In total, 66 fecal samples were taken from wild boars and examined using the floatation-sedimentation method to identify helminths eggs and protozoan cysts.

Genetic diversity of Streptococcus suis isolates as determined by comparative genome hybridization [PDF]

, 2011
Background Streptococcus suis is a zoonotic pathogen that causes infections in young piglets. S. suis is a heterogeneous species. Thirty-three different capsular serotypes have been described, that differ in virulence between as well as within serotypes.
