Encephalitozoon intestinalis infection of sows is reported from a pig farm in Slovakia. Spores were detected by direct microscopic visualisation in the faeces of 25 out of 27 sows (92.6%). This finding was also supported serologically by the presence of specific anti-E. intestinalis antibodies and by a species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This is the first report on E. intestinalis infection of swine in Europe.
斯洛伐克的一个养猪场报告了母猪肠道脑炎微孢子虫感染情况。通过直接显微镜观察,在27头母猪中的25头(92.6%)粪便中检测到了孢子。这一发现也得到了血清学支持,即存在特异性抗肠道脑炎微孢子虫抗体以及物种特异性聚合酶链反应(PCR)。这是欧洲关于猪肠道脑炎微孢子虫感染的首次报告。
