TL;DR: This study provided baseline performance of breeding pigs information on local sow productivity that was previously lacking and investigated performance ofbreeding pigs in rural smallholder communities of Western Kenya.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elimination of Mange Mites Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis from Two Naturally Infested Danish Sow Herds Using a Single Injection Regime with Doramectin
TL;DR: The results of these studies indicate that elimination of Sarcoptes scabiei from 2 naturally infested sow herds was successful, using doramectin in a single injection strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Escherichia coli expressing single-chain Fv on the cell surface as a potential prophylactic of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.
TL;DR: In vitro assay result demonstrated that E. coli expressing scFvs on the cell surface retained functional potency of parent antibody and therefore blocked PEDV infection into target cells in vitro.
