These results indicate the presence of pathogenic strains of Bordetella bronchiseptica in high concentration and low prevalence of Pasterurella multocida type D in growing pigs in different farms in Brazil. The early detection of these agents can be a favorable strategy in the control of Atrophic Rhinitis before the animals arrive to the slaughterhouse.
