Popis: Additional file 5. Scoring of fibrinosuppurative lesions of piglets challenged with S.suis cps7 strain 13-00283-02 (mrp+ cps7). Five spf piglets were infected intravenously with 2 × 108 CFU of S. suis cps7 ST29 strain 13-00283-02 and afterwards monitored every 8 h. All piglets demonstrated clinical signs in relation to polyarthritis (lameness, swollen joints, pain vocalization) and/or central nervous system dysfunctions (opisthotonus, ataxia, generalized tremor) within 36 h post-infection and were euthanized for animal welfare reasons. Necropsies and histopathological screenings of the indicated tissues were conducted with all 5 piglets as described [28].
