Abstract

Environmental swabs were used as a monitoring tool during a porcine epidemic diarrhea virus outbreak at a farrow-to-finish swine facility. Samples were collected over the course of 16 weeks following initial infection, and changes in biosecurity practices were implemented based on results. Separation of on-farm areas into different zones as determined by animal and feed ingredient contact and proximity allowed for a targeted approach to clean-up efforts.
