Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis: immune response

A

Strong antibody response ( IgA in intestinal tract protection)
SIgA (excreted in sows milk and passive immunity for piglets)

Best passive immunity from natural GI infection of the sow

19
Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE)

A

HIGHLY contagious a VIRAL disease

Caused by coronavirus
Spread through aerosol, direct fecal oral contact, or fomites
Epidemic: explosive in naive herds–lasts 3-5 weeks
Endemic: partial immunity, contagious introduction of susceptible pigs

20
Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE): HOST risk factors

A

Parity
Herd immunity levels
Environmental/management factors (continuous flow)

21
Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE):PATHOGEN risk factors

A

Persists in environments for a few weeks
Survives freezing
Sensitive to light aNd disinfectants

22
Q

Immune response

A

Pigs develop strong antibody response (IgA)
sIgA: excreted in Sows milk_passive immunity
BEST PASSIVE IMMUNITY FROM NATURAL GI INFECTION OF SOW

23
Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE): clinical signs

A

Vomiting, thirst,
Diarrhea(yellow with bad odor)
Abortion
Subsequent infections not as severe

24
Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE): diagnosis

A

Clinical signs
Necropsy
Fluorescent antibodies of intestinal contents

25
Q

Transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE): treatment and control

A

NO TREATMENT
Recovering pigs immune for a year

Increased farrowing room temp
Vax
Feed grand up dead to sows
Sanitation and disinfection 
Enhanced immunity from MLV (IgG) reduces disease severity
26
Q

Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED)

A
Important disease in Europe and Asia
No cross protection between TGE and PED
Maternal antibodies protect piglets 
Immunity is short lived and reinfection can occur (chronic)
Diagnosis: PCR
Prevention:bio security and vax
27
Q

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS)

A

Important disease in NA and Europe
VIRAL: caused by artervirus
Spread by close contact and in uterus

28
Q

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS): risk factors

A
Herd level of immunity and general herd health 
Virus strain
Overcrowding
Continuous barn flow
Pregnancy state at time of infection
29
Q

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS): signs of repro form

A

Increased stillborns, mummies, abortions and weak piglets
Sows feed decreased which increases pre weaning
Will run through herd in four months

30
Q

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS): signs of respiratory form

A

Chronic pneumonia
Decreased weight gains
Blue eared disease
Increased death loss

31
Q

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS): diagnosis

A
Vague Clinical signs
Blood tests
Virus insulation 
Necropsy
No treatment available
32
Q

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS): control

A

All in all out segregation
Buy known replacements with retesting during isolation
Disinfecting
Quarantine for 60 days
Vaccinate (MLV when not pregnant) killed & limited cross protection

33
Q

Pseudorabies

A

Mad itch, aujeszkys disease
VIRAL
Pigs are host
