Control Strategies for Swine Salmonella Infection The infection of the swine herd with Salmonella and consequently, the presence of this micro-organism in swine products, has been a serious concern since it can be a great threat to the consumers themselves. Embrapa Swine and Poultry and UFRGS teamed up to develop tools and epidemiological studies that can characterize the problem, the contamination sources and the infection dynamics in the country's southern herds. This project aims to propose a systematic control of the Salmonella infection in Status: Completed Start date: Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2007
Studies of antimicrobials use in pig farming as a subsidy for the National Action Plan for Prevention and Control of Antimicrobial Resistance As a World Health Organization and Codex Alimentarius member, Brazil needs to respond to global calls to improve human health and food production. At the heart of this debate is the interdisciplinary challenge of controlling resistance to antimicrobials. In addition to measures aimed at those focusing on human health, advances are also needed in the agricultural sector, both in knowledge and in immediate measures for rational use of antimicrobials and control of resistance spread. In this sense, Status: In progress Start date: Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2020
Genetic and antigenic diversity of influenza A viruses and efficacy of diagnostic methods and nanotechnological vaccine for the control of influenza in swine Pig respiratory infections caused by influenza A viruses (FLUAVs) lead to significant economic losses and pose a threat to human health due to the possibility of pandemics. Although Brazil has one of the largest world's pig herds (41 million animals), there was little evidence of FLUAVs' presence in Brazilian pig herds before 2009. After detecting the H1N1 pandemic virus (H1N1/2009) in 2009, influenza surveillance efforts in Brazilian pig production increased. Consequently, new influenza viruses Status: In progress Start date: Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2019
New technologies and sanitary practices to improve fertility and to reduce microbiological contamination in swine semen minimizing the use of antibiotics Brazilian pig production has increased its production in recent years, placing Brazil among the world's largest animal protein producers. This increase was mainly due to technological advances, such as artificial insemination. Artificial insemination is widely used in farm animals for genetic material dissemination. Data points out that more than 95% of sows are inseminated in Brazilian pig production. This biotechnology can also be a biosecurity tool that keeps production systems sanitary close Status: Completed Start date: Sat Feb 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2020
