Brucella Suis Support

Educational Overview

Brucella suis

Brucella suis is a bacterial pathogen that primarily affects pigs, but can also infect dogs, wildlife, and occasionally humans.

It causes brucellosis, a systemic infectious disease characterized by reproductive and general health issues.

Transmission:

• Direct contact with infected animals or tissues, especially reproductive organs, aborted fetuses, or placentas.
  
  

• Contaminated feed, water, or environments.
  
  

• Occasionally through dog ingestion of infected swine tissues.
  
  
  

Clinical signs in pigs:

• Reproductive failures: abortions, stillbirths, infertility.
  
  

• Lameness or joint swelling.
  
  

• Chronic infections may be subclinical, making detection difficult.
  
  
  

Clinical signs in dogs:

• Reproductive issues (infertility, abortions).
  
  

• Lameness, joint pain, or stiffness.
  
  

• Rare systemic illness, but dogs can act as vectors for human infection.
  
  
  

Key message:


Brucella suis is a serious zoonotic pathogen affecting reproductive and systemic health in pigs and dogs. Early detection, hygiene, and proper biosecurity are critical to protect animal and human health.
