TI  - Experimental airborne transmission of porcine reproductive and respiratory 
      syndrome virus and Bordetella bronchiseptica.
PG  - 267-75
AB  - Experiments were designed to determine if porcine reproductive and respiratory 
      syndrome virus (PRRSV) or Bordetella bronchiseptica could be transmitted through 
      indirect airborne contact. Three principal pigs were infected with PRRSV, B. 
      bronchiseptica or both. Five days after the principal pigs were challenged, the 
      three principal pigs and one direct-contact pig were placed into one isolation 
      tent together, and three indirect-contact pigs were placed into another isolation 
      tent which received its air supply from the first isolation tent. Airborne 
      transmission of B. bronchiseptica occurred in 5/5 trials where B. bronchiseptica 
      was the only agent used, and in 3/5 trials where the principal pigs were 
      coinfected with both agents. Airborne transmission of PRRSV occurred in 4/5 
      trials where PRRSV was the only agent used, and in 2/5 trials where the principal 
      pigs were coinfected with both agents. Thus, airborne transmission of both agents 
      over short distances, such as within a barn, is probable.
