The challenges with Glässer’s disease in technified pig production

ABSTRACT: The swine upper respiratory tract is early colonised by Haemophilus parasuis, a bacteria which causes Glässer´s disease under favorable conditions. Glässer’s disease is a septicemic infectious disease characterised by causing polyserositis. The prevention of Glässer disease still...

description ABSTRACT: The swine upper respiratory tract is early colonised by Haemophilus parasuis, a bacteria which causes Glässer´s disease under favorable conditions.
