Abstract
Two combined Pasteurella multocida/Bordetella bronchiseptica whole cell bacterins were tested in 15 swine herds in which atrophic rhinitis (AR) was a problem, though of varying significance. One half of the sows/litters in each herd was vaccinated, the other half acting as a control group. Vaccination resulted in reduced clinical symptoms of AR and an average increase in weight gain of 2.4 % in the 8 herds in which toxigenic P. multocida had been isolated, which was not statistically significant. Clinical symptoms and turbinate atrophy were also observed in vaccinated animals in most herds.
The need for improved methods to diagnose the presence of toxigenic P. multocida is discussed. Vaccination programmes in which herds are selected on the basis of the presence of toxigenic P. multocida are proposed.
Sammendrag
To tradisjonelle helcelle-vaksiner bestående av Pasteurella multocida og Bordetella bronchiseptica ble prøvet ut i 15 svinebesetninger som alle hadde nysesjuke, men varierende grad av kliniske symptomer. Halvparten av purkene/smågrisene i hver besetning ble vaksinert, resten utgjorde kontrollgrupper. Vaksinasjon førte til en reduksjon i kliniske symptomer og en gjennomsnittlig vektøkning på 2,8 % i de 8 besetningene der toksinproduserende P. multocida var blitt isolert. Men også vaksinerte dyr viste kliniske symptomer på nysesjuke og concha-atrofi.
Det trengs bedre metoder til å fastslå om toksin-producerende P. multocida finnes i svinebesetninger. Ved hjelp av dette kan en legge opp vaksinasjonsprogrammer i besetninger hvor disse bakteriene er til stede.
