Frédéric Vangroenweghe (Elanco Animal Health) demonstrated the efficacy of an oral live non-pathogenic E. coli F4/F18 vaccine (Coliprotec®) for active immunization of piglets against post-weaning diarrhea, during IPVS2022 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil....
Bruno Silva (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais) talks about what needs to be understood about the animal in order to use precision feeding, during IPVS2022 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. ...

Ana Castillo (Iowa State University) presented her research on circulating serotypes, during IPVS2022 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil....
Introduction Molecular serotyping and LS-PCR are valuable and practical tools for Glaeserella parasuis characterization (1, 2). Early in 2020, and due to the forced postpandemic closure, several swine production systems in Peru reported clinical cases of G. parasuis, and a total of sixty-eight qPCR-positive microbiological isolates of clinical cases were obtained over two years. The objective of this study was to identify the circulating serotypes,...
Jeroen Dewulf (Ghent University) talked about Biocheck, a risk-based scoring system developed to measure the level of biosecurity at animal farms, during IPVS2022 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil....
Paulo Campos (Cargill) comments on blends of amino acids and how they benefit the animal when faced with sanitary and disease challenges, during IPVS2022 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil....
Introduction Weaning events such as changes in diets, facilities, and littermates are among the factors that cause weaning stress. The weaning stress can lead to inflammatory activation in the intestine and damage of enterocytes [1, 2], reducing the digestibility of nutrients in feeds and nutrient absorption. It has long been demonstrated that pigs weaned at older ages are less susceptible to weaning stress and, thus, have improved feed intake and body weight gain [3–5]....
Introduction Fungal contamination in grains is a serious issue for modern animal production. Mold growth is associated with decreased nutrient content in animal feedstuff (Vieira, 2003). Furthermore, the development of fungi under specific conditions may lead to another major threat: mycotoxin production. In past decades, over one quarter of the world’s food crop production was estimated to be contaminated with mycotoxins (CAST, 2003). Mycotoxins are secondary fungal...
