Drs. Guilherme Preis and Deb Murray discuss “First assessment of weeks-to-negative processing fluids in breeding herds after a Senecavirus A outbreak”

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”

First assessment of weeks-to-negative processing fluids in breeding herds after a Senecavirus A outbreak

Today, we are sharing a new article from the Corzo lab, published in Porcine Health Management earlier this month. This study looks at the number of weeks it takes for processing fluids to become negative after a Senecavirus A outbreak. The full article is available on the journal’s website in open access.

PRRS monitoring by processing fluids in Italian swine breeding farms

This is our Friday rubric: every week a new Science Page from the Bob Morrison’s Swine Health Monitoring Project. The previous editions of the science page are available on our website.

In this week’s Science Page, researchers Matteo Tonni, Claudia Romeo, Nicoletta Formenti, M. Beatrice Boniotti, Flavia Guarneri, Livio Colosio, Simone Andreoni, Federico Scali, Paolo Pasquali and G. Loris Alborali share their findings from monitoring Italian breeding herds.

What is the role of parity in the detection of PRRSV in processing fluids?

Today we are sharing a paper by former MSHMP team member Juan Sanhueza, in collaboration with Drs. Cesar Corzo, Mariana Kikuti, and Declan Schroeder from the UMN swine group and multiple Midwestern swine systems. This recent publication in Preventive Veterinary Medicine looks at the impact of sow parity on the detection of PRRS virus in processing fluids.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome prevalence and processing fluids use for diagnosis in United States breeding herds

This is our Friday rubric: every week a new Science Page from the Bob Morrison’s Swine Health Monitoring Project. The previous editions of the science page are available on our website.

In this Science Page we look at research conducted by Mariana Kikuti, Carles Vilalta, Juan Sanhueza, Claudio Marcello Melini, and Cesar Corzo from the MSHMP team. They look at PRRS prevalence and how the use of processing fluids can help diagnose the disease.
