- The document discusses pig production in Spain and the author's experience vaccinating piglets against PCV2 (porcine circovirus type 2) using the Circovac vaccine. - Problems with poor performance and increased mortality led the author to test for PCV2, finding it present. Vaccinating piglets resulted in reduced mortality, improved growth and feed efficiency, and economic benefits. - However, the vaccine's effects can be limited if PRRS (porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome) is also present, and both PCV2 and mycoplasma vaccines may be needed in some farms. Ongoing monitoring and adaptation is important.

1) The study assessed the impact of the 1-7-4 strain of PRRS virus (PRRSv) on wean-to-finish pig mortality and profitability using a hierarchical mixed model. 2) The model found that farms infected with the 1-7-4 strain of PRRSv had 4.8% higher mortality and $2.87 less profit per head compared to farms with other strains or no PRRSv. 3) In addition to PRRSv strain, factors like sow farm status, start weight, supervisor, feed mill, and PEDv status significantly impacted mortality.

Dr. X.J. Meng - Designing PRRSV Vaccines for Heterologous Protection

John Blue

1) PRRSV remains a major problem for the global swine industry, causing $664 million in losses annually in the US alone. The emergence of more virulent strains and heterogeneity have complicated vaccine development. 2) DNA shuffling techniques are being used to generate chimeric PRRSV vaccines containing structural genes from multiple heterologous strains, which have shown promise in inducing cross-neutralizing antibodies and protection against diverse strains. 3) Targeting shuffled PRRSV antigens to dendritic cells through DC-SIGN enhances antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell immune responses in pigs. These approaches aim to overcome obstacles in developing a broadly protective PRRSV vaccine.

The document summarizes research on the efficacy of the Circovac vaccine in controlling PCVD (Porcine Circovirus Disease) under field conditions in Brazil. Two trials were conducted involving 1200 piglets total across two farms. Piglets vaccinated with Circovac at weaning showed lower wasting and mortality rates compared to non-vaccinated piglets. Vaccinated piglets also exhibited increased daily weight gain and improved feed conversion. Post-mortem examination found vaccinated piglets had significantly fewer lung lesions. The research concluded that Circovac vaccination of weaned piglets can effectively control PCVD and improve productivity on farms in Brazil.

Merial EMEA

This document discusses strategies for controlling Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCVD) in pigs. It notes that the disease has changed over time from an acute to a chronic form. Three main factors determine the risk of PCVD: high viral pressure, poor passive immunity in piglets, and young age at exposure. Vaccination of sows provides passive immunity to piglets while vaccination of piglets provides active immunity. The optimal strategy depends on farm size, co-infections present, and reproductive performance goals. A basic program vaccinating only sows is most cost-effective while a complete program vaccinating sows and piglets provides maximum protection. Future segmentation of farms may involve basic programs for small farms and assault or

Demand for porcine cysticercosis vaccine in Uganda: Lessons and insights

ILRI

Farmers in Uganda are willing to pay for a porcine cysticercosis vaccine, especially if it results in a premium price for vaccinated pigs or comes with a device to verify vaccine viability. Traders prefer pigs with high weight gain, which can be achieved through deworming. However, the current market system does not incentivize premium prices for vaccinated pigs. A purely public good approach may not be sustainable, so private-public partnerships could be considered. Quality assurance is also important given concerns over existing veterinary products.

Merial EMEA

This document discusses controlling bovine respiratory disease (BRD) in the cattle industry in Portugal. It begins by providing context on the cattle population and industry in Portugal. Specifically, it notes that the cattle population has been decreasing at 0.7% annually in line with EU trends. It then discusses approaches to controlling BRD in Portuguese feedlots. This involves determining the current herd health status, assessing risks, developing a plan of action to control BRD, and monitoring progress. The plan of action focuses on management practices to reduce disease exposure and increase host resistance, as well as medical measures like vaccinations and treatments. It emphasizes the importance of evaluating measures based on health, productivity and economic data.

Merial EMEA

This document summarizes research on Pasteurella multocida carriage and respiratory disease in calves. The key points are: 1. P. multocida is an emerging bovine pathogen that causes respiratory disease in calves. It is commonly carried by healthy calves and outbreaks are increasing. 2. Research has found that viral infections compromise lung immunity, allowing commensal bacteria like P. multocida to cause disease. Stress from transport also increases risk. 3. Molecular analysis showed that infected calves spread P. multocida between them, with initial carriers spreading it to 90% of infected animals. Prevention through management and vaccines/antibiotics is important.

Dr. Matt Anderson - Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus

John Blue

This document discusses Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDv), which was first detected in the United States in 2013. It caused high mortality in neonatal pigs. The virus likely entered via contaminated transportation systems. Strict biosecurity is needed to prevent transmission between farms via trucks, equipment, feed, and manure. Vaccines have been developed but their efficacy varies. The industry has made progress in research and control efforts, but risks remain from international trade and catastrophic market loss if a foreign animal disease was introduced. Continual improvement in cleaning and disinfection of transportation systems is crucial to control spread.

Merial EMEA

This study tested the efficacy of an O1 Manisa high potency vaccine against challenge with the O/Vietnam/2010 strain in pigs. Pigs were vaccinated 4 and 7 days prior to challenge. Most vaccinated pigs were protected from clinical disease at both timepoints. Virus RNA was detected in nasal secretions of vaccinated pigs for shorter durations than in unvaccinated controls. Vaccinated pigs shed insufficient virus to infect direct contact pigs. The vaccine decreased virus excretion and transmission, suggesting it could help control disease outbreaks when used with biosecurity measures.

Merial EMEA

This study assessed the cell-mediated immune response against PCV2 ORF1 and ORF2 proteins in pigs vaccinated with an inactivated PCV2 vaccine. The results showed that vaccination induced gamma interferon production against both ORF1 and ORF2, primed pigs for interleukin-2 secretion after challenge, and stimulated antibody responses. In contrast, unvaccinated pigs only developed immune responses after challenge. The cellular immune response detected is expected to contribute to reduced PCV2 replication in vaccinated pigs. This highlights the importance of including both ORF1 and ORF2 in PCV2 vaccine design.

This study evaluated the protective effects of two PCV2 vaccines (Vaccine A and Vaccine B) against fetal PCV2 infection in pigs. Gilts were vaccinated with one of the vaccines or unvaccinated as controls. After artificial insemination with PCV2-spiked semen, fetuses, placentas, and amniotic fluid were tested for PCV2. Vaccine A significantly reduced PCV2 positivity in fetuses compared to unvaccinated controls, but Vaccine B increased PCV2 positivity in placentas and amniotic fluid. The results suggest Vaccine A may better protect against subclinical fetal PCV2 infection than Vaccine B.

Aasv2014 callen et al. vaccination compliance to pcv2 using a dth test

Merial EMEA

This document describes two trials that tested a delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) test to detect compliance with PCV2 vaccination. In the first trial, vaccinated pigs all showed a significant skin reaction to antigen injection, while 50% of unvaccinated pigs reacted. The reaction was strongest 20-24 hours after injection. Histology confirmed a type IV DTH response. The second trial found nearly all pigs vaccinated with CIRCOVAC reacted, while only 25% of those vaccinated with another PCV2 vaccine reacted. The DTH test shows potential as a practical way to check compliance with CIRCOVAC vaccination. Further studies are needed to improve specificity and standardize the technique in field conditions.

This study assessed the control of PCV2 viral circulation in Danish slaughter pigs vaccinated with CIRCOVAC at 3 weeks of age. Blood samples were taken from 8 farms at various weight intervals and tested for PCV2 viral load and antibodies. No PCV2 DNA was detected in any samples, and antibody levels remained low, indicating an absence of PCV2 circulation. Vaccination with CIRCOVAC at 3 weeks of age provided excellent control of PCV2 throughout the fattening period, protecting against PCVD.

biomechanics of running. Dr.dhwani.pptx

Dr. Dhwani kawedia

The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

What are the different types of Dental implants.

Gokuldas Hospital

Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth? Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
