Enteric microorganisms are often collected from groundwater via dead-end ultrafiltration, but recovery of PRRSV and PCV with this method has not been assessed. We recovered PRRSV2 and PCV2 by dead-end ultrafiltration followed by polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation, nucleic acid extraction, and reverse-transcription quantitative real-time PCR. We also compared 2 commercial hemodialysis ultrafilters (Asahi Kasei Rexeed-25A, Nipro Elisio-25H) and compared PRRSV2 recovery in these filters to other waterborne microorganisms. On average, 8 ± 1% of PRRSV2 was recovered by dead-end ultrafiltration and PEG precipitation, compared to 25 ± 6% for adenovirus 41. Full-process recovery of bacteria in the same filters was 5-15%; Cryptosporidium parvum recovery was 42 ± 12%. PCV2 was detected in 4 of 12 replicate filters, but low stock concentrations precluded quantitative recovery estimates. Elisio-25H ultrafilters performed similarly to Rexeed-25A filters for all organisms tested and is an effective replacement for the Rexeed-25A, which is no longer available in the United States. Our recovery of PRRSV2 and PCV2 by dead-end ultrafiltration in the laboratory suggests that PRRSV2 detection limits are as low as 3-50 genomic copies/L in sample volumes of 100-1,500 L. Based on quantitative microbial risk assessment, these concentrations are relevant to PRRSV2 infection rates in the U.S. swine herd.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"439-447"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11871577/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143531634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given that little is known about the epidemiology of BoPyV1 infection in cattle, we screened for BoPyV1 in urine samples collected in 2015-2017 from beef and dairy herds from 12 of the 19 departments in Uruguay. We tested for BoPyV1 by PCR in 156 urine pools and 249 individual urine samples from 42 herds. We detected BoPyV1 in 33 of 42 (79%) farms across 100% of the departments studied, in similar proportions in beef (22 of 30; 73%) and dairy (11 of 12; 92%) herds. At the animal level, BoPyV1 was detected in 80 of 249 (32%) animals; this frequency was significantly higher in dairy (51 of 119; 43%) than beef (29 of 130; 22%) cattle, and in cows (36 of 81; 44%) than heifers (32 of 121; 26%). BoPyV1 strains circulating in Uruguay have a high degree (98.7-100%) of sequence identity at the major capsid protein VP1, which is slightly lower (96.2-99.7%) than for strains from other countries.

This microorganism encodes 2 major toxins, alpha (CPA) and epsilon (ETX). Enterotoxemia occurs when epsilon prototoxin (pETX) is produced in the intestine and is activated by one or more proteases before being absorbed into the general circulation. Traditionally, it was believed that neonatal animals were not susceptible to type D enterotoxemia due to the trypsin-inhibitory action of colostrum in the intestinal tract and the lack of protease activation of pETX, although cases of enterotoxemia have been reported in 2 neonatal goat kids. A 2-d-old lamb, with a history of frailty, hunched posture, shallow breathing, and diarrhea followed by death, was submitted for postmortem examination and diagnostic workup. Autopsy revealed hydropericardium, pulmonary edema, and congested intestines. Histologically, there was pulmonary congestion and edema, and intestinal congestion. C. perfringens type D carrying the gene for lambda toxin was isolated from the small intestine and colon. Both CPA and ETX were detected in the small intestine and colon contents.

Cases are frequent in South America, but the disease is sporadic in other countries. Infection typically leads to fatal necrotizing meningoencephalitis that most often affects calves <1-y-old and yearlings under stressful situations, including weaning, large concentrations of animals, transport, and introduction of cattle from other locations into a herd. Clinical disease lasts from 1-10 d and often leads to typical gross and histologic lesions that are more prominent in the frontal lobes of the brain. This particular neuroanatomic distribution of lesions results from retrograde viral infection from the nasal mucosa along the olfactory nerves and bulbs with subsequent spread to the rostral cerebrum. Because of its particular geographic distribution, many aspects of BHM are still poorly documented in the English language veterinary literature, and thus a comprehensive review of the disease is warranted. Here we review the main aspects of BHM, including its historical timeline, etiology, pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical and pathologic findings, diagnosis, and control and prophylaxis.","PeriodicalId":17579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","volume":" ","pages":"417-428"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11836966/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We isolated Pasteurella-like colonies from spleen, liver, small intestine, lung, and brain samples of 7 animals, and identified them as P. multocida serotype B:2 by amplifying kmt1, toxA, and hyaC-hyaD genes, capsular typing by PCR, and serotyping by agar gel diffusion precipitation test, which established the diagnosis of hemorrhagic septicemia as the cause of the outbreak. By further analysis, we determined that all of our P. multocida isolates encoded ptfA, fimA, hsf-2, nanH, hgbA, and pfhA, but we did not detect genes encoding toxA, hsf-1, tbpA, or tadD. We identified our strains by RIRDC MLST as sequence type (ST)122, characteristic for strains causing hemorrhagic septicemia, while using multi-host MLST analysis we assigned these strains to ST64 clustering with P. multocida strains from the 2015 hemorrhagic septicemia outbreak of saiga antelopes in Kazakhstan.

Histologic examination of the accompanying piece of tissue was confirmatory of the cecal apex, and the anorectal tear had acute hemorrhage most consistent with trauma.
