🎙️ The Swine Diagnostics Revolution: Lessons from Spain
The Spanish swine industry is at a critical crossroads: fighting highly virulent strains like PRRS Rosalia while managing strict biosecurity and import challenges. But for experts Professor Guillermo Ramis, professor Department of Animal Production Murcia University, and Dr. Gabriel Moyano, CTO assistant FarmFaes, this challenge is the ultimate opportunity for innovation.
In this insightful episode, we dive deep into the Spanish field with two minds—one academic, one industry—who are deploying advanced diagnostics to solve real-world problems.
We explore:
The essential power of Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) in tracing PRRS recombinations that ORF5 testing misses.
Shocking case studies, including the unexpected detection of sepsis-causing E. coli strains in piglet lungs and the discovery of novel hemoplasmas in breeding stock.
The cutting-edge role of virulence factor detection in designing smarter, more targeted vaccine strategies.
This is a story of how Witty and professional minds are using technology to bring precision to veterinary medicine.
