Construction of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae-Escherichia coli shuttle vectors: expression of antibiotic-resistance genes.
TL;DR: Cl cloning vectors based on an endogenous Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae 4.3-kb plasmid found that Apl and Ph did not express genes under the control of the lacZ or bla promoters, suggesting that their RNA polymerases may not utilize these promoters.

Characterization of the Fecal Microbiota of Pigs before and after Inoculation with “Brachyspira hampsonii”
TL;DR: The development of bloody diarrhea in inoculated pigs was associated with perturbation of the microbiota relative to INOC non-MH or sham-inoculated control pigs, and the fecal microbiota of INOC MH pigs was less dense, and had a lower Bacteroidetes:Firmicutes ratio.

TL;DR: Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae Koganei 65-0.15 strain has been shown to colonize the tonsils of pigs after oral inoculation and the possible use of the strain as a vector for oral vaccination against mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine is evaluated.

Protection of Piglets against Edema Disease by Maternal Immunization with Stx2e Toxoid
TL;DR: It is shown that maternal immunity against the Stx2e toxoid can be transmitted from the vaccinated sows to the piglets via the colostrum, bridging the critical period in which the weaned piglets are most susceptible to edema infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results of this study show that the simple preparation of the samples followed by the PCR assay may be a useful tool for epidemiological studies.
