T
What disease is PEV 9 indistinguishable from? In other words, what are the differential diagnosis?
foot - and mouth disease
vesicular stomatitis, and vesicular exanthema of swine

- part of the vesicular viral disease complex and may confuse the diagnosis
How do you diagnose PEV 9?
vesicular fluids

-CF for viral antigens, VI in cells or day-old mice

-VN as a confirmation of VI
What does the reoviridae (porcine rotavirus) cause?
young piglet diarrhea (10-28 days old)
What in sow colostrum protects newborns from rotavirus?
IgA
Where does the porcine rotavirus replicate?
epithelial cells of villi in the SI
What is synergistic with the porcine rotavirus is causing severe diarrhea?
ETEC
Is there a vaccine available for porcine rotavirus?
yes - a bivalent vaccine for swine transmissible gasteroenteritis virus (TGEV) and porcine rotavirus
What is the most important way for swine to gain protection from rota virus?
lactogenic immunity - early suckling and continuous sucking
What is the most important viral disease of young piglets?
Swine transmissible gasteroenteritis virus (TGEV)
What does TGEV affect?
exclusive small intestine disease, affecting the mature epithelial cells of the villi
What is the host of the TGEV?
only swine
Does TGE have a envelope - how do you know?
yes - it is seasonal
What does the feces of young piglets with TGEV look like?
white - contains undigested milk, strong offensive odor, but lack the red color
What is death due to in piglets with TGEV?
dehydration, acidosis and shock
Where does TGEV replicate?
in the tip of mature epithelial cells of SI villi
What cells does the TGE virus spare in the SI?
the Lieberkuhn cells at the base of the intestinal villi
What do the intestines of an animal with TGEV look like?

with colibacilosis?
TGEV - distended, thin, transparent small

colibacillosis - distended, normal-thickness small intestine - villi are not affected
What are the differential diagnosis for TGEV and how can you tell the difference?
TGEV- much more severe (clinical signs, morbitdity, mortality, villous atrophy); seasonal
Rotavirus - less severe, year - round
-Colibacillosis - villi NOT affected
-clostridial enteritis
-coccidiosis
How many forms does HEV have and what age pigs does it affect?
suckling pigs 1-3 weeks of age
What type of disease does HEV cause?

-importantly causes constipation and affected pigs are emaciated
What is the cause of dehydration in HEV - a common distinction from TGE and rotavirus?
from VOMITING (not diarrhea)
