PEDV Elimination Research

B & S Solutions PEDV Treatment Product

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, or PEDV, is a disease that affects the small intestine of pigs, leading to dehydration. In a test slurry, our B & S Solutions product was found to have effectively killed the virus in 99.9% of cases.

 Our team works directly with the Swine Vet Center, P.A. to combat the virus as a unified force. Our objective is to determine our product’s effect on the growth, immunological response, and intestinal development of PEDV-infected pigs.

In our study, we evaluated four treatment groups:

1. Directly infected controls
2. Directly infected, feed application
3. Directly infected, dermal application
4. Indirectly infected, dermal application

We found that treated pigs were more active in the first 2-3 days post-infection than non-treated pigs. Additionally, the feeder shared by all treated groups consumed 100 pounds more feed, resulting in the pigs gaining 2 whole pounds more than the non-treated group.

Although this was a test slurry, we are very encouraged by these results. B & S Research is seeking hog producers to help in our studies. Call for more information.
