Porcine nose atrophy assessed by automatic imaging and detection of bordetella bronchiseptica and other respiratory pathogens in lung and nose

Swine
The findings suggest that B. bronchiseptica in the nose can facilitate lung infections, as a higher number of pathogenic bacterial species was found when B. bronchiseptica was present in the nose. Nose health might be decisive for respiratory health. Study results highlight the nose as an important reservoir for B. bronchiseptica and P. multocida.
