Streptococcus suis is a important pathogen associated to many production and economical losses in the swine industry, in addition to its zoonotic importance. The aims of this study was evaluate the occurrence of Streptococcus suis type 2 in tonsil samples of healthy pigs at slaughter, comparing the bacterial isolation with PCR assay and to determine the presence of the EF factor (extracellular protein factor). Tonsil samples from 302 slaughtered pigs were collected from three abattoir. Isolation of S. suis was made in Columbia Blood Agar Base, and then bacterial phenotypic characterization was made using biochemical assays. The typification genus and species of the isolates was performed with the PCR technique for confirmation, and the pres...
