PRRSV – Page 8 – Swine in Minnesota

Environmental testing for PRRSV and PEDV around dead-boxes

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 Igor A.D. Paploski, Dennis N. Makau, Mariana Kikuti, Cesar A. Corzo, and Kimberly VanderWaal from the University of Minnesota share the findings of their study testing the environment surrounding dead animal boxes for PRRS and PED.

Using swine interstate transport records as a predictor of pathogen spread across the USA

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.

Megan N. Thomas, Phillip C. Gauger, Amy L. Baker and Tavis K. Anderson from Iowa State University and the USDA demonstrate that interstate hog transport could predict the spread of PRRSV in this week’s science page!

Drs. Kim VanderWaal and Jose Angulo discuss PRRSV on “Processing the Litter-ature”

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. Kim VanderWaal and Jose Angulo discuss “Predicting Potential PRRSV-2 Variant Emergence through Phylogenetic Inference”.

Monitoring the detection of PRRSV variant 1H.18
