Effect of enrofloxacin on Haemophilus parasuis infection, disease and immune response
Results from this study can help determine timing of antimicrobial use and contribute to our current understanding of judicious antibiotic use.

Field evaluation of the intranasal route as an alternative for administering Streptococcus suis and Haemophilus parasuis bacterins
Pigs in this study appeared to respond very similarly between the IN and IM routes at the time of processing when boosted at weaning by the IM route.
Advances in the quest for virulence factors of Haemophilus parasuis
A review published by researchers of CReSA provides an overview of the current knowledge of virulence factors of H. parasuis.
Sequencing of the genes responsible for the capsule production in Haemophilus parasuis
This finding is a first step towards understanding the basis of strain antigenic specificity and opens new possibilities for the developing of molecular serotyping systems, which could assist in the diagnosis and control of the disease.
Effect of marbofloxacin treatment on Haemophilus parasuis colonization
Marbofloxacin may be useful to control the disease produced by H. parasuis both at individual and population basis although a complete elimination of the bacteria was not possible.
Program of vaccination and antibiotic treatment to control polyserositis caused by Haemophilus parasuis under field conditions
The present study investigated the effects of vaccinating sows and piglets or piglets alone against Haemophilus parasuis.
A new discovery in the virulence mechanisms of the porcine pathogen Haemophilus parasuis
CReSA’s researchers have found that H. parasuis can utilize the sialic acid from the host to avoid recognition by the immune system and be able to cause disease.
Virulence-associated trimeric autotransporters of Haemophilus parasuis are antigenic proteins expressed in vivo
In this work, we produced 15 recombinant virulence-associated trimeric autotransporters (VtaA) passenger domains and looked for the presence of antibodies directed against them in immune sera by immunoblotting.
Serovar profiling of Haemophilus parasuis on Australian farms by sampling live pigs
Healthy pigs contain a range of Haemophilus parasuis serovars, even on farms free of Glässer's disease.
Sow vaccination modulates the colonization of piglets by Haemophilus parasuis
This work studied the colonization of H. parasuis in healthy piglets coming from vaccinated and non-vaccinated sows.
Correlation between clinico-pathological outcome and typing of Haemophilus parasuis field strains
A paper published by Dr Virginia Aragón (CReSA) shows that the severity of Glässer’s disease correlates with the quantities of H. parasuis recovered from the lesions. Moreover, for the first time, disease in domestic pigs has been reproduced with a strain isolated from the nasal cavity of wild boars.
Invasion of endothelial cells by systemic and nasal strains of Haemophilus parasuis
Invasion of endothelial cells is a virulence mechanism of H. parasuis that may be related to the ability of some strains to cause meningitis.
