Swine infection by Streptococcus suis: a retrospective study

Abstract: The epidemic aspects of swine infections caused by Streptococcus suis were studied, focusing mainly on the occurrence of several serotypes. A total of 323 samples of S. suis were isolated from clinically ill animals, serotyped according to the co-agglutination procedure, and analyzed. The serotyping revealed that S. suis was present in several Brazilian states. The largest number was isolated from the states of Minas Gerais (62.5%), São Paulo (10.8%), and Paraná (9.3%). Serotype 2 was the most frequent (61.0%)… Show more

The high frequency of S. suis serotype 2 isolation, especially from the central nervous system, corroborates previous studies of swine infection in Brazil and worldwide (Pagnani et al 2002, Vela et al 2003, Del`Arco et al 2008, Rocha et al 2012. Also the high frequency of mrp + /epf + / sly + and mrp + /epfv/sly + genotypes corroborates previous reports of S. suis infection in Europe and China (Silva et al 2006, Wei et al 2009).…”

“…As amostras confirmadas de S. suis foram sorotipadas por meio de coaglutinação utilizando soro hiperimune de coelho para os sorotipos entre 1 e 9 e ½ (Gottschalk et al, 1993;Del'Arco et al, 2008).…”

“…As amostras confirmadas de S. suis foram sorotipadas por meio de coaglutinação utilizando soro hiperimune de coelho para os sorotipos entre 1 e 9 e ½ (Gottschalk et al, 1993;Del'Arco et al, 2008).O S. suis sorotipo 2 foi o mais frequente (73,7%), seguido pelos sorotipos 1 (6,6%), ½ (5,3%), 3 (3,9%), 6 (3,9%), 5 (2,6%), não sorotipado (2,6%) e 7 (1,3%), detectados no sistema nervoso central de suínos doentes. Em 20 (66,7%) granjas, apenas um sorotipo de S. suis foi identificado no sistema nervoso central de suínos doentes, enquanto em 10 (33,3%) granjas foram identificados entre dois e cinco sorotipos (Tab.…”
