Approaches and Perspectives for Development of African Swine Fever Virus Vaccines
Investigation article published in Vaccines
African swine fever (ASF) is a complex disease of swine, caused by a large DNA virus belonging to the family Asfarviridae. The disease shows variable clinical signs, with high case fatality rates, up to 100%, in the acute forms. ASF is currently present in Africa and Europe where it circulates in different scenarios causing a high socio-economic impact. In most affected regions, control has not been effective in part due to lack of a vaccine. The availability of an effective and safe ASFV vaccines would support and enforce control-eradication strategies. Therefore, work leading to the rational…

Body temperature and motion: Evaluation of an online monitoring system in pigs challenged with Porcine Reproductive & Respiratory Syndrome Virus
Investigation article published in Research in Veterinary Science
Highly contagious and emerging diseases cause significant losses in the pig producing industry worldwide. Rapid and exact acquisition of real-time data, like body temperature and animal movement from the production facilities would enable early disease detection and facilitate adequate response. In this study, carried out within the European Union research project RAPIDIA FIELD, we tested an online monitoring system on pigs experimentally infected with the East European subtype 3 Porcine Reproductive & Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) strain Lena. We linked data from different body temperatu…

MCR-2-mediated plasmid-borne polymyxin resistance most likely originates from Moraxella pluranimalium
The Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy publish this investigation article
The recent identification of the first plasmid-mediated polymyxin resistance determinants, namely the MCR-1 and MCR-2 enzymes, has constituted an ultimate threat of pandrug resistance in Gram-negative organisms.1–3 These enzymes have been reported only in Enterobacteriaceae, mainly in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae; however, there have been reports from other enterobacterial genera, including Enterobacter, Salmonella and Shigella.1 The mcr-1 and mcr-2 genes have both been identified from cattle and pigs.1–3 In addition, the mcr-1 gene has been identified from chickens,4 but also fr…

Vaccination as a control strategy against Salmonella infection in pigs: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature
Research in Veterinary Science publish this investigation article
Consumption or handling of improperly processed or cooked pork is considered one of the top sources for foodborne salmonellosis, a common cause of intestinal disease worldwide. Asymptomatic carrier pigs may contaminate pork at slaughtering; therefore, pre-harvest reduction of Salmonella load can contribute to reduce public health risk. Multiple studies have evaluated the impact of vaccination on controlling Salmonella in swine farms, but results are highly variable due to the heterogeneity in vaccines and vaccination protocols. Here, we report the results of an inclusive systematic review and …

How does temperature influences the development of lactococcosis? Transcriptomic and immunoproteomic in vitro approaches
Investigation published in Journal of Fish Diseases
Lactococcus garvieae is the aetiological agent of lactococcosis, a haemorrhagic septicaemia that affects marine and freshwater fish, with special incidence and economic relevance in farmed rainbow trout. Water temperature is one of the most important predisposing factors in the development of lactococcosis outbreaks. Lactococcosis in trout usually occur when water temperatures rise to about 18 °C, while fish carriers remain asymptomatic at temperatures below 13 °C. The aim of this work was to analyse the differences in the complete transcriptome response of L. garvieae grown at 18 °C and at 13…

Update on the Risk of Introduction of African Swine Fever by Wild Boar into Disease-Free European Union Countries
Investigation article published in Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
Despite efforts to prevent the appearance and spread of African swine fever (ASF) in the European Union, several Member States are now affected (Lithuania, Poland, Latvia and Estonia). Disease appearance in 2014 was associated with multiple entrances linked to wild boar movement from endemic areas (EFSA Journal, 8, 2015, 1556), but the risk of new introductions remains high (Gallardo et al., Porcine Health Management, 1, and 21) as ASF continues to be active in endemic countries (Russian Federation, Belarus and Ukraine). Since 2014, the number of ASF notifications has increased substantially, …

Parenteral Vaccination with Heat-Inactivated Mycobacterium bovis Reduces the Prevalence of Tuberculosis-Compatible Lesions in Farmed Wild Boar
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases publish this investigation article
In 2012, a wild boar (Sus scrofa) tuberculosis (TB) control programme was set up in a wild boar farm by means of intramuscular (IM) vaccination with a heat-inactivated Mycobacterium bovis vaccine (IV). The goal was to assess safety and efficacy of the parenterally administered IV in a large farm setting with natural M. bovis circulation. Based on preceding results under laboratory conditions, we hypothesized that vaccinated piglets would show smaller scores of TB-compatible lesions (TBCL) than unvaccinated controls. After vaccination, no adverse reactions were detected by visual inspection or …

Identification of a New Genotype of African Swine Fever Virus in Domestic Pigs from Ethiopia
Investigation article published in Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
African swine fever (ASF) is an important emerging transboundary animal disease (TAD), which currently has an impact on many countries in Africa, Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and the Russian Federation. The current situation in Europe shows the ability of the virus to rapidly spread, which stands to threaten the global swine industry. At present, there is no viable vaccine to minimize spread of the disease and stamping out is the main source of control. In February 2011, Ethiopia had reported its first suspected outbreaks of ASF. Genomic analyses of the collected ASF virus (ASFV) strains were …

Serosurvey Reveals Exposure to West Nile Virus in Asymptomatic Horse Populations in Central Spain Prior to Recent Disease Foci
Investigation article published in Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
West Nile fever/encephalitis (WNF) is an infectious disease affecting horses, birds and humans, with a cycle involving birds as natural reservoirs and mosquitoes as transmission vectors. It is a notifiable disease, re-emerging in Europe. In Spain, it first appeared in horses in the south (Andalusia) in 2010, where outbreaks occur every year since. However, in 2014, an outbreak was declared in horses in central Spain, approximately 200 km away from the closest foci in Andalusia. Before that, evidence of West Nile virus (WNV) circulation in central Spain had been obtained only from wildlife, but…

Detección precoz de infecciones porcinas mediante un sistema de monitorización en tiempo real
Albéitar publish this article
La especie ganadera de mayor importancia económica en España es la porcina. Por ello, mantener sanos a los animales es crucial, no solo desde el punto de vista de la sanidad sino también en términos económicos. Hoy en día existen numerosas posibilidades para el control de las enfermedades infecciosas porcinas. Las más eficientes y comunes consisten en la detección en el laboratorio de los patógenos que producen estas enfermedades en muestras de tejidos de animales muertos o en muestras de sangre o suero de animales vivos. Para maximizar la probabilidad de encontrar al patógeno las muestras pro…
