Brucella suis biovar 3 infection in a Kentucky swine herd

WD Cornell, MM Chengappa, LA Stuart, RL Maddux, and RI Hail

Department of Microbiology, Murray State University, Breathitt Veterinary Center, Hopkinsville, KY 42240.

Sows from a large farrow-to-finish operation in western Kentucky had late-term abortions. Boars and breeding-age sows were tested serologically for brucellosis, and 83 of 125 were classified as reactors. No brucellae were isolated from the tissues of 6 unbred reactor sows, but Brucella suis biovar 3 was recovered from 5 aborted fetuses. Epidemiological studies failed to determine the source of the infection.
