The use of quantitative Real-Time PCR to estimate Salmonella shed in fecal samples from naturally infected finishing pigs

Abstract: The objective of this study was to describe the shedding pattern of Salmonella in finishing pigs, as well to quantify the Salmonella load. A longitudinal study was conducted in 12 cohorts of pigs in a multi-site farrow-to-finish production system. At the beginning of each cohort, 50 pigs (10 ± 2 weeks old) were randomly selected and individually identified. Individual pig fecal samples were collected and cultured every 2 weeks for 16 weeks (8 collections). Further, quantitative real-time PCR (q-PCR) targeting … Show more
