Journal Article
Evaluation of urine dipstick tests in experimental porcine urinary tract infection with uropathogenic Escherichia coli
2023
Overview
Urinary tract infection is a common disease in pigs and a major reason for sows to be culled. The disease, however, is difficult to diagnose due to lack of distinct clinical signs in the animals. We evaluated the diagnostic value of two commercial urine dipstick tests in 10 pigs using an experimental model of
Escherichia coli
urinary tract infection. Urine collected at baseline and 48 h after inoculation were analyzed. We show that dipstick tests positive of blood, leucocytes and particularly nitrite are very specific for
E. coli
UTI with a 100% positive predictive value.
