AB  - The first case of African swine fever in domestic pigs in Serbia was in 2019. The following
year, the disease was confirmed in wild boar. Thenceforth, ASF has been continuously reported in
both wild and domestic pigs. The outbreaks in domestic pigs could not be linked directly to wild
boars, even though wild boars were endemically infected, and reservoirs for ASF. This study aimed to
investigate outbreaks and routes of transmission in domestic pigs in a region of central Serbia where
no outbreaks in wild boar were reported. Fourteen outbreaks of ASF on backyard farms with low
biosecurity were traced back, and no connection to wild boar was found. The epidemic investigation
covered 2094 holdings, with 24,368 pigs, out of which 1882 were tested for ASF. In surrounding
hunting grounds, field searches were conducted. Dead wild boars were found, and 138 hunted wild
boars were negative for ASFV. It was concluded that outbreaks in 2021 were provoked by the illegal
trade of live animals and pig products. Even though infective pressure from wild boars is assumed,
no positive cases have been found, while the ASFV spreads within the domestic swine population
evidenced in four recent outbreaks in 2022

Necropsy revealed massive hemorrhages in subcutaneous andintermuscular tissue and on papillary muscle. Petechiae and ecchymoses were found on the omentum, mesentery and adipose tissue of heart, kidneyand costal pleura.Haemorrhagic-necrotic enteritis in duodenum and jejunum was characterized by catarrhal hemorrhagic inflammation withthe presence of mucous and bloody content, whereas gas bubbles in the submucosa have also been confirmed. Bacterial cultures from sampled organs were identified as Clostridium perfringens type A, Clostridium septicum, and Clostridium sordelli.Based on the established pathological and histological changes and the results of the bacteriological, biochemical, and molecular examination, the state of septic shock and toxemia with disseminated massive bleeding was the immediate cause of mouflon death. The septic condition is a consequence of enterotoxemia caused by Clostridium perfringens type A, Clostridium septicum, and Clostridium sordelliinfection.

AB  - The growing needs for milk as a highly valuable food, have directed selection of
the dairy cows towards high productivity, but also led to the occurrence of various
reproductive diseases. Decreased reproductive performance of dairy cows are caused by
uterine diseases in most cases. Uterine diseases in majority occur in the early postpartum
period. In the last 20 years, studies showed that subclinical endometritis is one of the most
common diagnoses with a prevalence of up to 90% in some farms. In literature also known
as „cytological endometritis“, subclinical endometritis (SCE) is defined as inflammation
of the endometrium without clinical signs of disease. For this reason, a routine clinical
examination of the reproductive organs is not sufficient to make a diagnosis. The only
sign of inflamation is increased number of polymorphonuclear cells in the cytological
smear, obtained by uterus swabs. The results of SCE are mostly reflected in the increased
number of abortions, extended service period and reduced productivity. Inflammation
and luteolysis occur due the influence of prostaglandins. In recent years, the influence
of selective and non-selective cyclooxygenase inhibitors (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs - NSAID), has been investigated for this purpose. NSAID have a role in reducing
endometrial inflammation and thus improving reproductive performances. This paper
aims to demonstrate the practical significance of the NSAID use, in cases of cows with
subclinical endometritis and their impact on the reproductive performance of dairy cows.

AB  - Forty-six golden jackals (Canis aureus) were collected between November 2020 and February 2021 in five counties of Serbia. Lung samples were screened for the presence of Pneumocystis DNA by pan-Pneumocystis PCR on the mtLSU rRNA gene obtaining PCR products of 370 bp in length. Pneumocystis DNA was detected in the lungs from 6/46 (13.04%) golden jackals. Four were females and two were males; four were classified as adults and two as subadults. Positive samples were confirmed in 4/5 investigated counties. No gross pathologic lung lesions were observed in this study. The sequences of Pneumocystis spp. from golden jackals were identical to one another and showed the highest similarity with Pneumocystis spp. sequences of dogs (98% nucleotide identity). The genetic variation was comparable to Pneumocystis spp. of raccoon dogs (95-97% nucleotide identity), red foxes (91-95% nucleotide identity), ferrets (86% nucleotide identity), and another Pneumocystis type in dogs (P. canis Ck2, 81% nucleotide identity) was higher. Golden jackals may be carriers and may play a nonnegligible role in the spread of Pneumocystis spp. Although this finding cannot be directly related to any clinical manifestation or pathologic lesions, a possible role in the exacerbation of different pulmonary disorders should be considered.

AB  - Hepatitis E virus (HEV), the zoonotic agent of infectious hepatitis, is present in swine farms
in different geographical areas. Little is known about the mechanism of liver damage and
type of local immune response by HEV in swine. Therefore, the aim of this study was to
determine the morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics of hepatic lesions
caused by hepatitis E virus in naturally infected swine. In this study, liver samples of 12
slaughtered 10 weeks old pigs which were RT‑PCR positive for HEV RNA in rectal swab
samples have been used. Livers were macroscopically examined and samples were taken
for histopathological, immunohistochemical (CD3, CD79α and TGF‑β1), semiquantitative,
morphometric analysis, RT‑nested‑PCR, PCR and bacteriological analysis. Microscopically,
mild and moderate multifocal lymphoplasmacytic hepatitis was observed. Apoptotic bodies
were observed as areas of focal eosinophilic condensation in the cytoplasm of 33.33% liver
samples, while in 16.67% liver samples portal fibrosis was detected. Immunohistochemically,
portal and lobular lymphocytes in the mononuclear liver infiltrate were predominantly
CD3+ T cells (234.80 ± 79.98). An intense TGF‑β1 positive reaction was observed within the
mononuclear cell infiltrate as well as polymorphonuclear cells in liver samples with apoptosis
of hepatocytes. In all 12 tested liver samples HEV RNA was detected by RT‑nested‑PCR.
HEV is noncytopathic, and this finding provides further evidence for an immune mediated
pathogenesis in hepatitis E virus infection in swine. Also, the role of CD3+ cells in hepatocyte
damage is clearly demonstrated.

AB  - This study examined the relationship between lung lesion severity and presence of antibodies of various respiratory pathogens, and the effects of lung lesion severity on growth performance, biochemical indicators, total aerobe counts, and carcass and meat quality indicators in total of 240 slaughter pigs originating from two farms with similar rearing conditions. Lung lesion severity was calculated based on the degree of pneumonia and pleurisy in slaughtered pigs. Two-step cluster analysis was used to place individual pigs to four clusters according to pneumonia and pleurisy scores: no lung lesions (cluster 1); mild lung lesions (cluster 2); moderate lung lesions (cluster 3); and severe lung lesions (cluster 4). ANOVA and post hoc pairwise comparisons using Tukey's test were performed to assess the differences between clusters in examined variables. Multivariate linear regression analysis was run to identify associations between lung lesions and examined variables. There was a strong evidence of association between the absence of lung lesions and increased albumin, sodium and chloride levels, daily weight gain, live weight, hot carcass weight, cold carcass weight, loin thickness and carcass lean content, and decreased haptoglobin, CK and LDH levels. Also, pigs without lung lesions produced the highest percentage of red, firm and nonexudative pork. Pigs having severe lung lesions had the highest percentage of simultaneously seropositive samples to SIV, PRRSV, PCV-2, PRCV, APP and M. hyopneumoniae. There was a strong evidence of association between the presence of severe lung lesions and decreased lactate, glucose, sodium, chloride and albumine levels, daily weight gain, live weight, hot carcass weight, cold carcass weight, loin thickness and carcass lean content, and increased CK, LDH and haptoglobin levels. There was a strong evidence of association between the presence of severe lung lesions in slaughered pigs and increased meat pH and sensory colour scores, and decreased drip, thawing and cooking losses and L* and b* values, which led to the highest occurrence of moderate DFD and DFD pork. There was a strong evidence of association between the presence of mild lung lesions in slaughtered pigs and decreased meat pH and sensory colour scores, and increased drip, thawing and cooking losses, L* and b* values, which led to the highest occurrence of moderate PSE and PSE pork. In conclusion, the presence of lung lesions, irrespective of severity, was significantly associated with alterations in the biochemical indicators, growth performance and carcass and meat quality in slaughtered pigs.

AB  - Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Choleraesuis is rarely detected in Europe, but the clinical
disease has been reported in wild boars. We describe here the clinical findings, pathologic changes, and microbiologic features
of swine salmonellosis caused by S. enterica serovar Choleraesuis in weaned piglets in Serbia. In April 2019, on a large
farrow-to-finish pig farm, increased mortality was reported in weaned piglets, marked by lethargy, anorexia, pyrexia, and
respiratory distress. Gross pathology revealed dermal cyanosis, mesenteric lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly,
interstitial pneumonia, and colitis. By direct culturing of lung, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes, S. enterica ser. Choleraesuis
variant Kunzendorf was isolated after years of absence of the disease in pig farms in Europe. The source of this salmonellosis
outbreak caused by S. enterica ser. Choleraesuis remains unknown.

AB  - Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome is a viral disease of swine characterized by reproductive failure of breeding animals and respiratory disorders in all categories. The first PRRS case in Serbia was recorded in 2001 after illegal import of boar semen. PRRS is economically the most important disease due to significant direct and indirect losses. Today, for routine diagnosis of PRRS in infected herds serological methods (ELISA) and molecular methods are used. Although modern diagnostic techniques are very robust, exceptional diversity of the viral strains is often the obstacle for an accurate diagnosis. To estimate the performance of seven different methods for PRRSV genome detection, twenty samples were used. However, none of the methods was able to detect all PRRSV strains. The best sensitivity was obtained by combining two methods. Until today, there is no absolutely accurate test which enables the detection of all circulating strains.

AB  - Backgroud: The presence of PCV3 genome has been detected in pigs affected by different clinical and pathological conditions as well as in healthy animals. Its presence has been reported in many countries of North and South America, Asia and Europe. However, there is no evidence of the presence and genetic characteristics of PCV3 in many European countries and especially the countries of the Balkan Peninsula. Purpose: The major objective of this study was to investigate the presence and obtain further genetic characterization of PCV-3 in the pig populations in Serbia. Methods: To demonstrate the presence of PCV-3 DNA a conventional PCR assay was performed. The samples where no PCR product was observed (n=32), were further tested with a real-time PCR assay. The six PCR samples that were strongly positive for PCV-3 were subjected to amplification and sequencing of their entire cap genes and complete viral genome. Results: We report on the first identification, genetic diversity and potential association in pathogenesis of some systemic and respiratory swine diseases of PCV-3 in Serbia. Conclusion: The results imply that PCV-3 circulates widely in the pig population and has a high similarity with previously reported isolates. Detected PCV-3 can be associated with some swine systemic and respiratory diseases but these associations are strongly influenced by the clinical or pathological condition of the animals. Our findings demonstrate that there are certain PCV-3 loads in pigs suffering from active PRRSV infection, Glässer’s disease, APP pleuropneumonia, pneumonic pasteurellosis and PRDC; however, the significance of this viral load, as well as the mechanism by which PCV-3 may act as a secondary agent in aggravating the severity during co-infections of these pathogens, requires further research.

AB  - INTRODUCTION: Hepatitis E is considered an emerging human viral disease with many evidences of zoonotic nature of disease, and swine are the main reservoir of HEV. The aim of this study was to determine HEV seroprevalence in commercial pig farms, backyard pigs, slaughtered pigs and wild boars in the region of the city Belgrade. METHODOLOGY: A total of 405 sera samples: 150 samples from 3 commercial pig farms, 70 samples from backyard pigs, 119 samples from slaughtered pigs and 66 samples from wild boars of the region of the city Belgrade, Serbia were analysed by commercial ELISA test. RESULTS: The overall HEV seroprevalence in 3 commercial pig farms was 55.33% (83/150). All tested farms (farm A, B and C) were positive on the presence of anti-HEV antibodies, respectively 58% (29/50), 54% (27/50) and 54% (27/50). From 70 tested backyard pigs, 75.71% (53/70) were tested seropositive. In total, 26 backyard pig holidngs were confirmed as positive to anti-HEV antibodies (81.25%). At slaughterhouse, 25% (8/32) weaned piglets and 20.69% (18/87) fattening pigs were tested positive on anti-HEV antibodies. Overall HEV seroprevalence in tested wild boar population was 52.25% (36/66). CONCLUSIONS: Detected very high seroprevalence of anti-HEV antibodies indicated an active circulation of HEV, being enzootic in the swine population, and wild boars, as well, in the region of the city Belgrade.

AB  - Porcine Kobuvirus (PKV) infection is very common in pigs throughout the world. Since it has never been investigated in Serbia, to contribute to the knowledge of Porcine Kobuvirus, its role, and distribution, we tested 200 samples from domestic pigs and wild boars. From domestic pigs, 10 fecal, 22 spleen and 68 serum samples, and 100 spleen samples from wild boars were tested. The virus prevalence determined by real-time RT-PCR in domestic pigs was 22% and in wild boars 6%. The phylogenetic analysis of 3D region revealed that Serbian strains are closest related to the Hungarian strain from wild boar from 2011. This is the first report on PKV in Serbia in domestic pigs and wild boars, implying its wide circulation. Although the infection could not be directly related to any clinical manifestation, the frequency of virus found in feces suggests viral affinity to the gastrointestinal tract. However, due to the rather ubiquitous presence of PKV, the clinical and pathological assessment have to be considered when PKV infection is diagnosed.

AB  - Pigs are very important for the epidemiology of influenza A viruses, being commonly infected with the lineages of most adapted H1N1, H3N2, H1N2 swine subtypes. Epidemiological complexity of swine influenza is increasing by a periodic spillover of human or avian viruses in the pig population when genetic shifts can occur. The objectives of this research were to determine the presence of the influenza A virus in nasal and tracheobronchial swabs and lung tissue samples of ill and dead pigs on commercial farms, to determine circulating subtypes and characterize them through the phylogenetic analysis of hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) genes. A total of 255 samples collected from 13 farms were analyzed by means of real-time RT-PCR. The genome of influenza A virus was detected in 24 samples, which represented a 61.5% prevalence at the farms level (influenza A virus was confirmed in 8 out of 13 farms included in this study). Based on HA and NA gene sequences of 8 viruses, the circulation of H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes of influenza A viruses were determined. In addition, one farm exhibited a time separated circulation of H1N1 and H3N2 virus subtypes. Using Influenza Research Database, our viruses of the H1 subtype were classified into 1C.2.1 and 1A.3.3.2. clade. Based on the nucleotide sequences of HA genes, three viruses of the H1N1 subtype belong to the H1N1pdm09 lineage, and the other four to Eurasian “avian-like” H1avN1 lineage; while based on NA genes sequences, these seven viruses belong to Eurasian “avian-like” H1avN1 lineage. Both HA and NA genes of the virus of the H3N2 subtype belonged to the A/swine/ Gent/1/1984-like H3N2 lineage.
AB  - Svinje su veoma važne u epidemiologiji infl uenca A virusa, jer je većina zapata širom sveta zaražena nekim od tri podtipa (H1N1, H1N2 ili H3N2). Pored toga, one su prijemčive i za ljudske i ptičije infl eunca A viruse, usled čega u njihovom organizmu može doći do genetskog reasortiranja i stvaranja genotipski i fenotipski novih virusa. Cilj ovog istraživanja je bio da se analizom nosnih i traeo-bronhijalnih briseva i pluća poreklom od bolesnih i ugilnulih svinja ispita prisustvo infl uenca A virusa, da se odrede cirkulišući podtipovi i fi logenetski okarakterišu kroz analizu sekvenci HA i NA gena. Tokom ovog istraživanja sa 13 farmi je sakupljeno i metodom realtime RT-PCR pregledano je 255 uzoraka. Genom infl uenca A virusa je utvrđen u 24 uzorka. Prevalencija virusa na nivou farmi iznosila je 61.5%. Kompletno je sekvenciran genom 8 virusa koji su poticali sa sedam farmi. Na osnovu sekvenci HA i NA gena potvrđena je cirkulacija H1N1 i H3N2 podtipova. Na jednoj farmi ustanovlejna je cirkulacija oba podtipa, ali u različitim periodima ispitivanja. Na osnovu sekvence HA gena, sedam virusa H1 podtipa su grupisani u 1C.2.1 i 1A.3.3.2 genske grupe i H1N1pdm09 i evroazijsku “avian-like” H1avN1 linije. Na osnovu sekvence neuraminidaza gena ovih sedam H1N1 virusa su grupisani u evroazijsku “avian-like” H1avN1 liniju. Virus H3N2 podtipa na osnovu sekvenci HA i NA gena pripada liniji A/Swine/ Gent/1/1984 - “like” liniji.

AB  - The aim of this study was to determine the pathological, mycological and molecular findings in turkey poults with different immunological status experimentally infected with Aspergillus fumigatus. The investigation was carried out 1, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days after intratracheal inoculation of 5.056x10(7) spores of A. fumigatus to 14-day-old turkey poults in group G-1, as well as to turkey poults in group G-2 which were treated prior to infection with dexamethasone. A. fumigatus was isolated on day 1 p.i. in both groups, but the number of positive samples was bigger in group G-1. A. fumigatus was isolated from the respiratory organs of group G-1as early as on day 1 and 3 p.i. in 4 out of 12 examined specimens (33%). On day 7 p.i. A. fumigatus was possible to isolate from the respiratory organs of 50% of infected birds, on day 14 in 83.33% and on day 21 p.i. A. fumigatus was isolated in 6 out of 6 sacrificed turkey poults (100%). In dexamethasone-treated group A. fumigatus isolates from the respiratory organs on day 1 and 3 p.i. were same as in group G-1, whereas on days 7 and 14 p.i. the number of turkey poults positive to A. fumigatus increased in comparison with the untreated G-1 group. The histopathological lesions in turkey poults treated with dexamethasone developed earlier, were more intensive and extensive. The mycological and nested PCR results revealed a higher number of samples positive for the presence of A. fumigatus DNA in the group G-2, pretreated with dexamethasone.

AB  - Introduction. Neonatal calves are often deficient in iron. Accumulating evidence indicates that iron status is associated with disease pathologies including diarrhea. Our objective was to examine the association between iron status and gut function in neonatal calves with and without a history of calf diarrhea. Materials and Methods. Calves were divided into two groups based on their history of diarrhea; the first group were diarrheic calves (n=6) and the second group were non-diarrheic healthy calves (n=6). Blood samples (n=12) were collected at day 12 of age and erythrogram determination and measurements of serum iron and total iron binding capacity were performed. Hematological values were measured using an automatic analyzer, and biochemical properties were determined spectrophotometrically. Fecal samples were obtained from all calves and pH measured using semi quantitative test strips as well as being examined by bacterial cultivation for enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. and Clostridium perfringens, by RT-PCR for the presence of bovine rotavirus, bovine coronavirus and bovine viral diarrhea virus, and by microscopy for the presence of Cryptosporidium parvum. Results and Conclusions. There were significant iron-related changes for most hematological indices in diarrheic calves; and iron (Fe) deficiency and microcytic, hypochromic anemia were diagnosed. The pH of the feces was significantly higher in diarrheic calves than in the non-diarrheic healthy group (P lt 0.01). All fecal samples were negative for the analyzed enteric pathogens. According to the results obtained, calves experiencing iron deficiency anemia exhibit changes in gut function leading to diarrhea as compared with a matched group of healthy calves.

Telad su podeljena u dve grupe na osnovu pojave dijareje; prva grupa (n=6) telad sa dijarejom i druga grupa (n=6) klinički zdrava telad bez znakova dijareje. Uzorci krvi su uzeti od sve teladi 12. dana života i određeni su parametri crvene krvne slike, sadržaj serumskog gvožđa i ukupni kapacitet vezivanja gvožđa. Parametri crvene krvne slike određeni su automatskim hematološkim analajzerom, dok su biohemijski parametri određeni spektrofotometrijski. Uzorci fecesa uzeti su od sve teladi i izmerena je pH vrednost semikvantitativno pomoću test tračica. Bakteriološkim pregledom uzorci fecesa su ispitani na prisustvo enterotoksogenih Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. i Clostridium perfringens vrsta; RT-PCR metodom ispitani su na prisustvo goveđeg rotavirusa, coronavirusa i virusa goveđe virusne dijareje, dok su mikroskopski pregledani na prisustvo Cryptosporidium parvum. Rezultati i zaključak. Promene u koncentraciji gvožđa dovele su do pojave značajnih promena u hematološkim indeksima teladi sa dijarejom i pojavi mikrocitne hipohromne anemije. Vrednost pH fecesa je bila značajno veća kod teladi sa dijarejom u odnosu na zdravu telad. Svi uzorci fecesa bili su negativni na ispitivane enteropatogene uzročnike. U poređenju sa zdravom teladi, pretpostavka je da kod teladi sa anemijom koja je uzrokovana deficitom gvožđa nastaju promene u funkciji digestivnog trakta koje dovode do pojave dijareje.

U poređenju sa zdravom teladi, pretpostavka je da kod teladi sa anemijom koja je uzrokovana deficitom gvožđa nastaju promene u funkciji digestivnog trakta koje dovode do pojave dijareje.",

AB  - The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence of pathological lesions in pigs from small-scale farms and to determine associations between pathological lesions and hematological parameters, and carcass and meat quality in slaughtered pigs. The study was conducted on 625 pigs (similar to 115 kg) originating from 20 small-scale farms. Any signs of pneumonia, pleurisy, pericarditis, and liver milk spots were recorded as present or absent. Complete blood count was investigated. The following carcass quality parameters were measured: live, hot and cold carcass weights, cooling loss, dressing percentage, backfat thickness, and meatiness. Meat pH and temperature were measured 45 min postmortem. Of the 625 examined pigs, 41.8% had pneumonia, 23.5% pleurisy, 2.7% pericarditis, and 29.9% liver milk spots. The presence of pathological lesions in slaughtered pigs adversely affected hematological parameters, reduced live, hot and cold carcass weights, and meatiness and had deleterious effects on meat quality (higher pH(45min) and higher prevalence of dark, firm and dry meat). In conclusion, this study showed a high prevalence of pathological lesions in slaughtered pigs, indicating serious health problems in smallholder pig production systems. The presence of single and, especially, multiple pathological lesions in slaughtered pigs negatively affected hematological parameters, and carcass and meat quality.

AB  - Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogen responsible for listeriosis, a sickness with a high mortality rate. Listeriosis is largely associated with ready-to-eat (RTE) foods. It is well established that foods that pose the greatest risk of foodborne listeriosis are those RTE foods that have intrinsic characteristics such as pH and water activity that support the growth of L. monocytogenes. RTE foods can also become re-contaminated during further processing and handling. Increased handling leads to a higher probability of contamination. Sources of contamination can be food contact surfaces, processing machinery and workers. In our research, L. monocytogenes was detected in a RTE salad. Food safety criteria for Listeria monocytogenes in RTE foods have been applied from 2006 (Commission Regulation (EC) 2073/2005). Still, human invasive listeriosis was reported to increase during 2009-2013 in the European Union and European Economic Area. Time series analysis for the 2008-2015 period in this area showed an increasing trend of the monthly notified incidence rate of confirmed human invasive listeriosis of the over 75 age groups and female age group between 25 and 44 years old (probably related to pregnancies).

AB  - U ovom radu prikazan je slučaj krave simentalske rase, starosti dve godine i šest meseci kod koje je postojala sumnja na nodularni dermatitis, sredinom 2017 godine. Kliničkim pregledom ustanovljeni su brojni noduli veličine od nekoliko milimetara do približno 10 centimetara diseminovani dominantno po koži vimena i perineuma, od kojih su neki konfluirali i egzulcerisali. Opšte stanje krave je bilo nepromenjeno. Krava je prema rezultatima laboratorijskih analiza bila negativna na prisustvo antitela protiv virusa leukoze goveda, pokazala je negativnu reakciju pri tuberkulinizaciji i bila je vakcinisana protiv nodularnog dermatitisa. Nakon hirurške ekscizije kožnog čvora, uzorak je bio negativan na prisustvo genoma virusa nodularnog dermatitisa. Kako bismo ustanovili morfologiju kožne lezije, urađena je histopatološka analiza. Histopatološka analiza je pokazala infiltraciju dermisa i subkutisa brojnim mononukleranim ćelijama koje pokazuju ćelijsku atipiju. Tada je postavljena sumnja da se radi o kutanom limfomu. Nadalje, imunohistohemijsko ispitivanje je potvrdilo da se u infiltratu nalaze isključivo CD3 imunopozitivne ćelije što sugeriše da se radi o T-ćelijskom neepiteliotropnom limfomu
AB  - In this paper the case of a 2.5-year-old Simmental cow, with suspicion of lumpy skin disease in mid-2017 in Serbia will be presented. Clinical examination revealed numerous nodules of varied size from a few millimeters to approximately 10 centimeters disseminated predominantly on the skin of the udder and the perineum, some of which were coalescing and exulcerated. The general condition of the affected animal was unchanged. According to the results of laboratory analysis, the cow was negative for the presence of antibodies against the bovine leukemia virus, showed a negative reaction in tuberculinization and was vaccinated against lumpy skin disease virus. After the surgical excision of one skin node, the sample tested negative for the genome of lumpy skin disease virus. In order to establish the morphology of the skin lesion, a histopathological analysis was performed. Histopathological analysis showed the infiltration of the corium and subcutaneous tissue by numerous mononuclear cells showing cellular atypia. Suspicion of cutaneous lymphoma was established. Furthermore, the immunohistochemical examination confirmed that the infiltrate contained exclusively CD3-immunopositive cells, suggesting a T-cell origin nonepitheliotropic lymphoma.

AB  - Vaccines are a very effective tool for the prevention and eradication of infective diseases in both veterinary and human medicine. Although for safety reasons, vaccines undergo very strict controls before being placed on the market, the risk of adverse reactions is not eliminated. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), adverse event following immunization (AEFI) is any untoward medical occurrence that follows immunization and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the usage of the vaccine. Adverse reactions may arise as a direct consequence of immunization due to the specificity of the vaccine itself, the quality of the vaccine or the immunization errors. In addition, adverse reactions may also be the result of a coincidental relationship between the effect and immunization. However, biological mechanisms of AEFI are very complex. During the mass vaccination campaigns, when a large number of animals are vaccinated in a short period of time, adverse reactions are expected to be the most frequently reported. In Serbia, livestock is currently being vaccinated against Lumpy Skin Disease, Bluetongue, and Classical swine fever.

AB  - Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Salmonella along the slaughter line and to identify possible critical control points in one slaughterhouse facility located in the city of Belgrade. Methodology: In total, 700 samples were tested: two swabs from both sides of carcass were taken from each of 100 pigs. In this way, 200 pig skin swab samples were taken after stunning, 200 after processing and 200 after chilling. Additional 100 samples of ileal contents were also taken from the same pigs to obtain a collection of 270 isolates. All samples were analyzed using standard culture methods and serotyping. PFGE was performed for 27 isolates. Determination of antimicrobial resistance was performed by E-test. Results: In total, 47 (23.5%) swab samples were positive for the presence of Salmonella after stunning. After processing, Salmonella was isolated in two swab samples (1%), whereas all samples which were collected after chilling were negative for Salmonella. The sampling of ileal contents was positive for five Salmonella isolates (5%). The most frequently isolated serotypes were S. Derby (90.74%), S. Infantis (5.56%) and S. Typhimurium (3.7%). All tested isolates were resistant to tetracycline. Resistance was recorded to nalidixic acid (23.3%), ciprofloxacin (20%), ampicillin (10%) and chloramphenicol (14.4%), as well. The PFGE results indicated that isolates had a high genetic similarity. Conclusions: The investigation has confirmed that bacteriological examinations of carcass swabs, as well as ileal content, could be used to assess the carriage of salmonellae in pigs at the time of slaughter.

abstract = "Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Salmonella along the slaughter line and to identify possible critical control points in one slaughterhouse facility located in the city of Belgrade. Methodology: In total, 700 samples were tested: two swabs from both sides of carcass were taken from each of 100 pigs. In this way, 200 pig skin swab samples were taken after stunning, 200 after processing and 200 after chilling. Additional 100 samples of ileal contents were also taken from the same pigs to obtain a collection of 270 isolates. All samples were analyzed using standard culture methods and serotyping. PFGE was performed for 27 isolates. Determination of antimicrobial resistance was performed by E-test. Results: In total, 47 (23.5%) swab samples were positive for the presence of Salmonella after stunning. After processing, Salmonella was isolated in two swab samples (1%), whereas all samples which were collected after chilling were negative for Salmonella. The sampling of ileal contents was positive for five Salmonella isolates (5%). The most frequently isolated serotypes were S. Derby (90.74%), S. Infantis (5.56%) and S. Typhimurium (3.7%).

AB  - Listeria is the genus of a bacteria found in soil and water and some animals, including poultry and cattle. It can be present in raw milk and food made from raw milk. It can also live in food processing plants and contaminate a variety of processed meats. Microscopically, Listeria species appear as small, Gram-positive rods, which are sometimes arranged in short chains. In direct smears, they can be coccoid, so they can be mistaken for streptococci. Longer cells can resemble corynebacteria. Flagella are produced at room temperature but not at 37 degrees C. Haemolytic activity on blood agar has been used as a marker to distinguish Listeria monocytogenes among other Listeria species, but it is not an absolutely definitive criterion. Further biochemical characterization is necessary to distinguish between the different Listeria species. The objective of this study was to detect, isolate and identify Listeria monocytogenes from poultry meat. Within a period of six months from January to June 2017, a total of 15 samples were collected. Three samples were positive for the presence of Listeria monocytogenes. Biochemical and microbiological tests as well as PCR technique using specific primers were used to confirm L. Monocytogenes in the samples.

AB  - Bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BHV-4) is related to many different conditions: infertility, postpartal metritis, vulvovaginitis, mastitis, encephalitis, calf pneumonia, keratoconjunctivitis, cutaneous lesions, digital dermatitis and abortion. In this study a retrospective PCR examination of 100 extracted DNA samples from aborting cows was performed in order to determine: prevalence of BHV-4 in abortive cattle, whether coinfections BHV-4 with other abortifacient pathogens are present in the same sample and to determine the month of gestation when BHV-4 associated abortions were detected. Out of 100 examined samples, the BHV-4 genome was detected in 21 samples (21%). In two samples we detected coinfection of BHV-4 with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and in one with Neospora caninum. Most of the BHV-4-associated abortions were detected during the seventh month of gestation. It was concluded that an active BHV-4 infection was present among cows that aborted on the farms examined. The high prevalence of the BHV-4 genome in abortion material suggests that this virus may have cause the abortions. Further studies and examinations are needed to establish causative connection between presence of BHV-4 and abortion.

AB  - Abortions represents significant problem in modern cattle husbandry because they directly and indirectly affects profit from production. Abortions in cattle can be caused by infectious (viruses, bacteria, protozoa, fungi) or non-infectious agents. Infectious agents can have beside their abortive effect other organ pathology which additionally compromise health of animal and also production. Also, some causative agents are zoonotic. This paper represents results from diagnostic examination of samples from cows which aborted on PKB farms during 2014. By polymerase chain reaction (PCR), we investigated presence of genom of BVD virus, IBR virus, Schmallenberg virus, Neospora caninum and Coxiella burnetii. Samples (fetus, placenta, swabs) from 137 cows which aborted were examined and 46 cows (33,5%) were positive on some of causative agents. Presence of one of pathogens was detected in 43 cows (31,4%o), while samples from 3 cows (2,2%o) were positive for two pathogens simultaneously. According to this results, the most common agents were Neospora caninum and BVD virus which were detected in 23 (16,8%) and 19 (13,8%) cows, respectively. Coxiella burnetii was proven in 6 cows (4,4%), IBR virus in one, while presence of Schmallenberg virus was not detected in any cow. Current results suggests that contagious abortive agents are present significantly on PKB corporation farms. Tight cooperation between veterinary service and diagnostic laboratory is necessary for their control and detection.
AB  - Abortusi predstavljaju značajan problem u savremenom uzgoju goveda jer direktno i indirektno utiču na ekonomsku isplativost proizvodnje. Pobačaji goveda mogu biti izazvani infektivnim (virusi, bakterije, protozoe, gljivice) ili neinfektivnim faktorima. Infektivni agensi kao uzročnici pobačaja mogu pored abortogenog efekta imati i drugu organopatologiju čime dodatno ugrožavaju zdravstveno stanje životinja, a time i proizvodnju. Takođe, pojedini uzročnici imaju i zoonotski potencijal. U ovom radu prikazani su rezultati dijagnostičkih ispitivanja uzoraka poreklom od krava koje su abortirale sa gazdinstava PKB-a tokom 2014. godine. Metodom reakcije lančane polimeraze (PCR) ispitivano je prisustvo genoma BVD virusa, IBR virusa, Šmalenberg virusa, Neospora caninum i Coxiella burnetii. Pregledani su uzorci (fetus, placenta ili brisevi) od 137 krava koje su abortirale pri čemu je 46 krava (33,5%) bilo pozitivno na neki od ispitivanih agenasa. Prisustvo jednog od patogena je detektovano kod 43 krave (31,4%o), dok su uzorci od 3 krave (2,2%o) bili istovremeno pozitivni na 2 uzročnika. Prema ovim rezultatima, najzastupljeniji uzročnici su Neospora caninum i BVD virus koji su dokazani kod 23 (16,8%), odnosno 19 (13,8%) krava. Coxiella burnetii je dokazana kod 6 krava (4,4%), IBR virus kod jedne, dok prisustvo genoma Šmalenberg virusa nije ustanovljeno ni kod jedne krave. Trenutni rezultati ukazuju da su kontagiozni uzročnici abortusa prisutni u značajnoj meri na gazdinstvima PKB korporacije. Za njihovu kontrolu i otkrivanje neophodna je bliska saradnja veterinarske službe i dijagnostičke laboratorije.

AB  - Ispitivanja su imala za cilj da se utvrdi uticaj Clostridium perfringens tip A na razvoj patomorfološkog supstrata, njegov intenzitet i distribuciju kod teških roditelja uzrasta petnaest nedelja. Ispitivanje je obavljeno na leševima 8 koka i 7 petlova teških roditelja provenijencije COBB 500. Posle izvršene obdukcije, za histopatološko ispitivanje uzeti su uzorci promenjenih delova jejunuma i jetre, a za bakteriološko i molekularno ispitivanje crevni sadržaj jejunuma.  Kod svih leševa u otvorenoj pleuroperitonealnoj šupljini, već in situ, uočava se promenjeni deo jejunuma. On je bio izrazito dilatiran celom dužinom, a njegov zid plavičasto-sive boje sa diseminiranim subseroznim punktiformnim krvnim ekstravazatima. Njegovim otvaranjem iz lumena je izlazio polutečni sadržaj u kojem plivaju krvni koagulumi i krpičasti delovi nekrotične mukoze. Mikroskopskim pregledom isečaka tkiva tankih creva bojenih HE metodom zapažena je difuzna nekroza crevnih resica. One su destruisane i zamenjene eozinofilnom bestrukturnom masom. Pored toga, uočava se edem submukoze, kongestija kapilara i krvni ekstravazati u mukozi, kao i infiltracija neutrofilnih granulocita u lamini propriji. Navedene mikroskopske alteracije oslikavaju hemoragično-nekrotični enteritis. Mikroskopskim pregledom isečka tankih creva bojenih Brown & Brenn metodom ustanovljene su kolonije bakterija u distalnim delovima submukoze.  Bakteriološkim ispitivanjem u anaerobnim uslovima, izolovana kultura je identifikovana kao Clostridium perfringens. Primenom multiplex PCR dobijeni izolat je genotipiziran kao Clostridium perfringens tip A. Na osnovu patomorfoloških, bakterioloških i molekularnih ispitivanja može da se zaključi da infekcija teških roditelja Clostridium perfringens tipa A protiče sa slikom difuznog hemoragično-nekrotičnog jejunitisa, da uzročnik duboko penetrira u tkivo jejunuma i da su pšenica i pšenične mekinje činili favorizujući faktor za proliferaciju etiološkog agensa.
AB  - The aim of the investigation was to determine the influence of Clostridium perfringens type A on the development of pathomorphological substrate, its intensity and distribution in fifteen weeks old heavy breeds broilers. The investigation was carried out on corpses of 8 hens and 7 roosters of heavy breeds of provenance COBB 500. After the completion of the autopsy, samples of altered parts of jejunum and liver were taken for histopathological examination, and jejunum intestinal contents for bacteriological examination. In all the corpses, in open pleuroperitoneal cavity, even in situ, an altered part of jejunum can be noticed. It was extremely dilated the entire length, and its wall was bluish-gray with disseminated subserous punctiform blood extravasates. When opened, semi-liquid content with blood coagulums and patches of necrotic mucosa went out of it. By microscopic examination of small intestine tissue cuttings, colored by HE method, there was observed a diffuse necrosis of intestinal villi. They were desroyed and replaced by eosinophilic structureless mass. Furthermore, there could be noticed submucose oedema, capillary congestion and blood extravasates in mucosa, as well as infiltration of neutrophilic granulocytes in lamina propria. These microscopic alterations reflect hemorrhagic necrotic enteritis. By microscopic examining of small intestine cuttings colored according to Brown & Brenn method, colonies of bacteria in distal parts of the submucosa were found out.  Using bacteriological tests in anaerobic conditions, there was isolated a culture identified as Clostridium perfringens. After applying of multiplex PCR, the obtained isolate was genotyped as Clostridium perfringens type A.  On the basis of pathomorphological, bacteriological and molecular examinations, it can be concluded that the infection of heavy breeds with Clostridium perfringens type A is manifested by appearance of haemorrhagic-necrotic jejunitis, that the causer penetrates deeply into jejunum tissue and that wheat and wheat bran were a favoring factor for proliferation of the etiological agent.

abstract = "Ispitivanja su imala za cilj da se utvrdi uticaj Clostridium perfringens tip A na razvoj patomorfološkog supstrata, njegov intenzitet i distribuciju kod teških roditelja uzrasta petnaest nedelja. Ispitivanje je obavljeno na leševima 8 koka i 7 petlova teških roditelja provenijencije COBB 500. Posle izvršene obdukcije, za histopatološko ispitivanje uzeti su uzorci promenjenih delova jejunuma i jetre, a za bakteriološko i molekularno ispitivanje crevni sadržaj jejunuma.  Kod svih leševa u otvorenoj pleuroperitonealnoj šupljini, već in situ, uočava se promenjeni deo jejunuma. On je bio izrazito dilatiran celom dužinom, a njegov zid plavičasto-sive boje sa diseminiranim subseroznim punktiformnim krvnim ekstravazatima. Njegovim otvaranjem iz lumena je izlazio polutečni sadržaj u kojem plivaju krvni koagulumi i krpičasti delovi nekrotične mukoze. Mikroskopskim pregledom isečaka tkiva tankih creva bojenih HE metodom zapažena je difuzna nekroza crevnih resica. One su destruisane i zamenjene eozinofilnom bestrukturnom masom. Pored toga, uočava se edem submukoze, kongestija kapilara i krvni ekstravazati u mukozi, kao i infiltracija neutrofilnih granulocita u lamini propriji. Navedene mikroskopske alteracije oslikavaju hemoragično-nekrotični enteritis. Mikroskopskim pregledom isečka tankih creva bojenih Brown & Brenn metodom ustanovljene su kolonije bakterija u distalnim delovima submukoze.  Bakteriološkim ispitivanjem u anaerobnim uslovima, izolovana kultura je identifikovana kao Clostridium perfringens. Primenom multiplex PCR dobijeni izolat je genotipiziran kao Clostridium perfringens tip A. Na osnovu patomorfoloških, bakterioloških i molekularnih ispitivanja može da se zaključi da infekcija teških roditelja Clostridium perfringens tipa A protiče sa slikom difuznog hemoragično-nekrotičnog jejunitisa, da uzročnik duboko penetrira u tkivo jejunuma i da su pšenica i pšenične mekinje činili favorizujući faktor za proliferaciju etiološkog agensa., The aim of the investigation was to determine the influence of Clostridium perfringens type A on the development of pathomorphological substrate, its intensity and distribution in fifteen weeks old heavy breeds broilers. The investigation was carried out on corpses of 8 hens and 7 roosters of heavy breeds of provenance COBB 500. After the completion of the autopsy, samples of altered parts of jejunum and liver were taken for histopathological examination, and jejunum intestinal contents for bacteriological examination. In all the corpses, in open pleuroperitoneal cavity, even in situ, an altered part of jejunum can be noticed. It was extremely dilated the entire length, and its wall was bluish-gray with disseminated subserous punctiform blood extravasates. When opened, semi-liquid content with blood coagulums and patches of necrotic mucosa went out of it. By microscopic examination of small intestine tissue cuttings, colored by HE method, there was observed a diffuse necrosis of intestinal villi. They were desroyed and replaced by eosinophilic structureless mass. Furthermore, there could be noticed submucose oedema, capillary congestion and blood extravasates in mucosa, as well as infiltration of neutrophilic granulocytes in lamina propria. These microscopic alterations reflect hemorrhagic necrotic enteritis. By microscopic examining of small intestine cuttings colored according to Brown & Brenn method, colonies of bacteria in distal parts of the submucosa were found out.  Using bacteriological tests in anaerobic conditions, there was isolated a culture identified as Clostridium perfringens.

AB  - The objective of the study was to estimate herd-basis energy status (ES) using body condition scoring (BCS) and shortened metabolic profiles in multiparous clinically healthy dairy cows and to evaluate if such profiles can be informative in herd investigation to indicate on metabolic herd problems. A total of 180 Holstein cows from commercial herd were clinically examined and assigned to one of 3 equal groups: dry cows (15 days before expected calving), puerperal (10 days after calving) and cows at day 60 of lactation. Blood were sampled and analyzed for total protein, albumin, urea nitrogen (UN), β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), glucose and total bilirubin. Liver samples by percutaneous biopsies were obtained at puerperal period and tested for lipid content. The cows had a mean BCS of 3.92±0.03 at dry period, 3.08 ± 0.03 at puerperal period and 2.82 ± 0.02 at day 60 of lactation. Average total protein, albumin and glucose concentrations were within the physiological range, whereas UN was higher than physiologically accepted, at all examined periods. BHBA levels increased after calving and 61.66% of puerperal cows had BHBA levels above 1 mmol/L. Average total bilirubin concentration after calving was higher than recommended. Concentrations of UN, BHBA and total bilirubin were positively correlated, whereas concentrations of total protein and glucose were negatively correlated with fatty
liver degree. Albumin concentration was not correlated with fatty liver degree. In conclusion, although clinically healthy the examined cows were not in adequate ES during the transition period. Consequently, 55% of the cows had moderate to severe fatty liver. A sufficient number of highly significant correlations suggest that employed metabolic profiles may offer an indirect means of estimation energy status on a herd basis.

AB  - Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the main causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). To characterize and determine the genetic diversity of PCV2 in the porcine population of Serbia, nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of the open reading frame 2 (ORF2) of PCV2 collected from the tissues of pigs that either had died as a result of PMWS or did not exhibit disease symptoms were analyzed. Sequencing and phylogenetic analysis showed considerable diversity among PCV2 ORF2 sequences and the existence of two main PCV2 genotypes, PCV2b and PCV2a, with at least three clusters, 1A/B, 1C and 2D. In order to provide further proof that the 1C strain is circulating in the porcine population, the whole viral genome of one PCV2 isolate was sequenced. Genotyping and phylogenetic analysis using the entire viral genome sequences confirmed that there was a PMWS-associated 1C strain emerging in Serbia. Our analysis also showed that PCV2b is dominant in the porcine population, and that it is exclusively associated with PMWS occurrences in the country. These data constitute a useful basis for further epidemiological studies regarding the heterogeneity of PCV2 strains on the European continent.
