Internal biosecurity

No needles are involved so the risk of disease transmission between animals is reduced and internal biosecurity is improved.

  • Several trials have demonstrated the disease transmission by using the same needle. Hematogenous transmission of PRRSV can occur from infected pigs to susceptible pigs via repeated use of the same needle1.
  • Pigs are extremely susceptible to infection by parenteral exposure. Very few PRRS virus particles are enough to infect pigs by this route2.
  • It is concluded that iatrogenic transmission is reduced due no needles being involved as stated in an evaluation of a needle-free injector device 3.
