Introduction:In utero infection of piglets with PCV2 may serve as a potential source of PCV2 vertical transmission to the offspring1. This infection might make newborn pigs more susceptible to co-infections with other pathogens and therefore may be associated with PCVAD in the growing pig2. It has been shown before that Ingelvac CircoFLEX® is safe when used in sows 3. The objective of this stu ...

Introduction:Lawsonia intracellularis (L.i.) is the causative agent of porcine proliferative enteropathy (PPE). PPE is a relevant economic enteric disease that causes diarrhea and reduces weight gain in growing pigs (1). The subclinical form produces as well a negative impact on performance and farm economics. L.i is endemic in most of the Spanish farms (2). The aim of this study was to evaluate t ...
