| the effects of gender, age and region on macro- and micronutrient contents and fatty acid profiles in the muscles of roe deer and wild boar in mecklenburg-western pomerania (germany). | samples of m. longissimus were collected from a total of 203 feral roe deer (n=118) and wild boar (n=85) in two regions of mecklenburg-western pomerania (germany). the muscle lipid saturated fatty acid proportions of roe deer and wild boar ranged between 33 and 49g/100g total fatty acids and 31 and 35g/100g total fatty acids, respectively. the total n-3 pufa proportions in roe deer muscle varied between 8.0 and 14g/100g fatty acids, and in wild boar muscle between 2.6 and 6.0g/100g fatty acids. ... | 2013 | 23376435 |
| epidemiological survey of swine influenza a virus in selected wild boar populations in germany. | the aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiological situation of swine influenza virus (siv) infections in different wild boar populations in germany based on a serological surveillance in some bundeslaender (federal states) in connection with virological investigations in wild boar shot in northern germany (mecklenburg-western pomerania, district of nordvorpommern). altogether, 1245 sera from wild boar were tested using the hemagglutination inhibition test. the established seroprevalence ... | 2008 | 18440732 |
| trichinella spiralis and trichinella pseudospiralis mixed infection in a wild boar (sus scrofa) of germany. | a wild boar (sus scrofa) from the island usedom in mecklenburg-western pomerania (north-east germany) was detected as trichinella-positive during routine meat inspection. encapsulated and non-encapsulated larvae were detected in the muscle tissue by trichinoscopy. in the diaphragm, 922 larvae per g were detected by artificial digestion. muscle larvae displayed two different sizes of about 700 and 1100 microm. by a multiplex pcr analysis, larvae with a large size were identified as trichinella sp ... | 2006 | 16513281 |
| oral immunisation of wild boar against classical swine fever: concluding analysis of the recent field trials in germany. | the recent oral immunisation trials in wild boar against classical swine fever (csf) in germany are described and evaluated in summary. after the first field study in lower saxony from 1993-1995 further immunisation trials started in mecklenburg-western pomerania, brandenburg, lower saxony, baden-württemberg and saxony-anhalt. the immunisation strategies and the size of the vaccination zones were different in the individual federal states. in principle, the bait vaccine based on the csf virus st ... | 2002 | 12058591 |
| [the situation of classical swine fever in wild boars in the european community and selected aspects of disease transmission]. | the situation of classical swine fever (csf) in europe is described on the basis of the literature. in the european community, csf is present among wild boars in germany (federal states mecklenburg-western pomerania, brandenburg and lower saxony), in france (northern vosges) and in italy (regio emìlìa romagna in 1997 and sardinia--enzootically infected). infected wild boars are important as a source of infection for domestic pigs in germany. selected aspects of the transmission of csf virus from ... | 1998 | 9674308 |
| [incidence and damages inflicted by simuliid flies in the gdr district of schwerin]. | systematic faunal studies in the district schwerin showed at the present time there are 3 more or less damage-biotopes existing in the districts of perleberg, ludwigslust and parchim; 5 river sources can be considered as potential sources, 5 are temporary and 2 are ephemeral whilst in 3 further areas environmental influences such as effluent impairs the flow of the river and the developmental stages of simuliidae were not observed.--the following species were found: boophthora erythrocephala, wi ... | 1976 | 1267220 |
| increased prevalence of trichinella spp., northeastern germany, 2008. | in 2008, a trichinella spp. outbreak occurred on a small family-owned pig farm in mecklenburg-western pomerania in northeastern germany. to obtain epidemiologic information on this outbreak, we determined that after 2005 the prevalence of trichinella spp. in wild boars has increased in this region of germany. we discuss the potential role of the raccoon dog in the increase in trichinella spp. prevalence in the sylvatic cycle in this region. we believe that this increase could pose a threat to pi ... | 2010 | 20507743 |

| classical swine fever (csf) in wild boar: the role of the transplacental infection in the perpetuation of csf. | thirty-four pregnant wild sows and their unborn progeny derived from an endemically infected population in the district of nordvorpommern (mecklenburg-western pomerania) were investigated for classical swine fever virus (csfv) and antibodies. during the last 2.5 years of the epidemic, 20 out of 34 pregnant wild sows investigated were serologically positive. no csfv or viral rna was detected in organs derived from these animals and their progeny. this indicates that young wild boars persistently ... | 2005 | 16000110 |
| seroprevalence of tick-borne-encephalitis virus in wild game in mecklenburg-western pomerania (north-eastern germany). | mecklenburg-western pomerania, a federal state in the north east of germany, has never been a risk area for tbev infection, but a few autochthonous cases, along with tbev-rna detection in ticks, have shown a low level of activity in natural foci of the virus in the past. as wild game and domestic animals have been shown to be useful sentinels for tbev we examined sera from wild game shot in mecklenburg-western pomerania for the prevalence of tbev antibodies. a total of 359 sera from wild game we ... | 2016 | 27527383 |
| seroprevalence of brucellosis, tularemia, and yersiniosis in wild boars (sus scrofa) from north-eastern germany. | brucellosis and tularemia are classical zoonotic diseases transmitted from an animal reservoir to humans. both, wildlife and domestic animals, contribute to the spreading of these zoonoses. the surveillance of the animal health status is strictly regulated for domestic animals, whereas systematic disease monitoring in wildlife does not exist. the aim of the present study was to provide data on the prevalence of anti-brucella, anti-francisella and anti-yersinia antibodies in wild boars from north ... | 2005 | 16364020 |
