PRRS - Air Filtration

10:30
An update of research and field experiences, Scott Dee and Satoshi Otake

Air filtration is rapidly proving itself to be an effective means to reduce the risk of the airborne spread of swine pathogens such as PRRS virus, swine influenza virus and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae. This session will provide the latest information on PRRS virus aerobiology as well as data from ongoing air filtration studies from the SDEC and the field. Specific topics include long distance spread of PRRS virus, the efficacy of alternative filters for reducing the risk of PRRS virus and swine influenza virus and preliminary data from the application of air filtration to large sow herds in swine dense regions in conjunction with the evaluation of external risk factors for virus introduction.
