FREQUENCY OF ACTINOBACILLUS PLEUROPNEUMONIAE INFECTION IN COMMERCIAL PIG FARMS OF THE PERUVIAN COAST

The objective of the study was to determine the frequency of antibodies against the ApxIV toxin of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, causal agent of porcine pleuropneumonia in 10 commercial pig farms of Arequipa, Lima, Ica and La Libertad departments. Blood samples were collected from animals in the...

description The objective of the study was to determine the frequency of antibodies against the ApxIV toxin of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, causal agent of porcine pleuropneumonia in 10 commercial pig farms of Arequipa, Lima, Ica and La Libertad departments. Blood samples were collected from animals in the growing and finishing stages (30 per farm) and analyzed by the indirect ELISA test using a commercial kit. The results showed that 23.7% (71/300) of the animals presented antibodies against the ApxIV toxin, and the highest frequency was found in the farm located in Ica (60%). The presence of antibodies against the ApxIV toxin indicated the presence of A. pleuropneumoniae infection in pig commercial farms in Peru.

El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la frecuencia de anticuerpos contra la toxina ApxIV de Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, causante de pleuroneumonía porcina en 10 granjas porcinas tecnificadas de los departamentos de Arequipa, Lima, Ica y La Libertad. Se colectaron muestras de sangre de porcinos de las etapas de crecimiento y acabado (30 por granja) y se analizaron mediante la prueba de ELISA indirecta con un kit comercial. El 23.7% (71/300) de los animales presentaron anticuerpos contra la toxina ApxIV, correspondiendo la mayor frecuencia a la granja del departamento de Ica (60.0%). La presencia de anticuerpos contra la toxina ApxIV evidencia la presencia de la infección con A. pleuropneumoniae en la industria porcina del Perú.
