molecular tracing of classical swine fever viruses isolated from wild boars and pigs in france from 2002 to 2011. | there were three outbreaks of classical swine fever (csf) in north-eastern france between 2002 and 2011. the first two occurred in april 2002 in the moselle department, in a wild boar and pig herd, respectively, while the third occurred in april 2003, in the bas-rhin department, in a wild boar. a survey was subsequently implemented in wild boar and domestic pig populations, during which 43 csf viruses (csfvs) were genetically characterized to provide information on virus sources, trace virus evo ... | 2013 | 23891170 |
[classical swine fever in wild boar in rhineland-palatinate: evaluation of the official control measures from 2005-2011]. | the present study describes the control strategy for fighting classical swine fever in wild boar in rhineland-palatinate from 2005 to 2011 and evaluates its effectiveness. the official control measures were based on the following three main pillars:--serological and virological monitoring: by means of serological monitoring classical swine fever outbreaks could be detected very early. increasing antibody prevalences indicated an imminent classical swine fever outbreak. this could be confirmed by ... | 2015 | 26697717 |
retrospective analysis of the oral immunisation of wild boar populations against classical swine fever virus (csfv) in region eifel of rhineland-palatinate. | in the present study the effect of control measures implemented during the classical swine fever (csf) epidemic in wild boar in the eifel region of the german federal state of rhineland-palatinate from 1999 to 2005 was assessed. during the first 3 years after official confirmation of virus detection these measures comprised intensive hunting, especially of young animals and hygiene measures. subsequently oral immunisation (o.i.) using a modified live virus vaccine was introduced as an additional ... | 2008 | 18534790 |
