Abstract
We quantify the epidemiological, genetic and antigenic dynamics of SwIV in Hong Kong using a data set of more than 650 SwIV isolates and more than 800 swine sera from 12 years of systematic surveillance in this region, supplemented with data stretching back 34 years. Intercontinental virus movem...

Abstract
These results suggested that B. suis bv. 2 may use strategies similar to other smooth brucellae to facilitate intracellular multiplication and the development of chronic infections. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the analysis of gene expression profile in hosts infected with B. suis b...

Abstract
We found a higher number of H. parasuis strains (16 strains) within a given farm than previously thought. Overall, more H. parasuis diversity was found in piglets from non-vaccinated sows than in those from vaccinated sows. These results indicate that vaccination of sows in a farm delays the coloniz...

Emerging Infectious Diseases (16)10 2010
Abstract
We conducted surveillance during 2005-2009. We found that 52 pigs in 4 provinces were infected during 2005-2007 but not 2008-2009. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the viruses had been introduced into the pig population in Indonesia on at least 3 occasions. One isolate had acquired the ability to r...

We investigated the expression of immunoglobulin A (IgA) in porcine salivary gland and its relationship with restraint stress in pigs. IgA was expressed in plasma cells in pig salivary gland, as confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. IgA was also detected in pig saliva itself by ELISA, and saliv...

Abstract
Liver lesion prevalence in slaughtered finishing pigs in the Netherlands remained relatively high from the mid-1990s until 2004, although sufficient measures existed to control the main cause, an infection with the roundworm Ascaris suum. In July 2004 a new incentive mechanism was installed to induc...

Abstract
A loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay was developed specifically for detection and differentiation of pseudorabies virus (PRV). One group of primers was designed to detect wild-type strains (i.e., strains with the gE gene) and the other group of primers was designed to detect both PR...

We performed genetic analyses of the HA gene by comparing the 2009 H1N1 virus with seasonal human and swine viruses. We analyzed sequences of 116 2009 H1N1 viruses, and obtained 1457 seasonal H1N1, 365 swine H1, and 1332 2009 H1N1 viruses from the database. Selection pressure for the 2009 H1N1 virus...

Abstract
Escherichia coli enterotoxigenic strains produce one or more toxins which action result in production of diarrhea in animals including Man. One of these toxins, STb, has been mainly associated with colibacillosis in swine. Although highly prevalent in pigs with diarrhea, a relation between STb and d...
