The Swine Disease Eradication Center is proud to present another episode of “Processing the Litter-ature”: a podcast in which peer-reviewed papers are docked, clipped and supplemented with a field perspective.
Drs. Guilherme Preis and Deb Murray discuss “First assessment of weeks-to-negative processing fluids in breeding herds after a Senecavirus A outbreak”
Today we are sharing a recent publication from the Corzo and the Goyal labs regarding the potential of PRRS groundwater contamination based on different types of Minnesotan soils. The entire paper is available on the journal website in open access.
Continue reading “Comparative Adsorption of PRRS Virus Strains to Minnesota Soils”The Science Page today is from researchers Taylor B Parker, Kelly A Meiklejohn, Gustavo Machado, Michael Rahe, Bradford Sean Darrow, and Juliana Bonin Ferreira, who take a look at PEDV contamination on trucks before and after cleaning.

Paploski, Mariana Kikuti, Xiaomei Yue, Marcello Melini, Albert Canturri, Stephanie Rossow and Cesar A. Corzo, University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus causes significant economic losses in the U.S. — approximately $1.2 billion annually — due to reproductive failure, abortion and high pre-weaning mortality among piglets. Thirty percent of the U.S. breeding herd experiences annual PRRSV outbreaks. A farm’s positive stable status is confirmed by sampling serum from piglets or using processing fluids.
