Clinical Symptoms and Prevention and Control Measures of Pig Toxoplasmosis
Abstract：Pig toxoplasmosis is a parasitic disease caused by Toxoplasma gondii, which not only affects pigs but can also infect humans. The disease can cause fever, reduced appetite, diarrhea, constipation, and cyanosis or bleeding on the skin surface in pigs. After infection with Toxoplasma gondii, sows may experience reproductive disorders such as abortion, stillbirth, and weak offspring. Cutting off the transmission route and regularly administering drugs sensitive to Toxoplasma gondii to pigs are effective measures for preventing toxoplasmosis. Once suspected cases are found, diagnosis can be confirmed by combining clinical symptoms with laboratory tests. After confirmation, treatment with sulfonamide drugs and other medications can be carried out promptly. Isolating infected pigs and disinfecting the environment can effectively reduce economic losses caused by pig toxoplasmosis. Therefore, this article conducts an in-depth discussion on the clinical symptoms and prevention and control measures of pig toxoplasmosis.
