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.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of Bordetella bronchiseptica and Pasteurella multocida type D found in samples of oral fluid (OF) collected from 2014 to 2019, in Brazil.
