Description
Angie Quinonez-Munoz, Nader Sobhy, and Sagar Goyal measure how long a pig virus survives on common farm materials, in a research paper from 2024. The virus causes reproductive and respiratory disease in pigs and keeps sparking outbreaks despite vaccines. Surfaces can carry it between animals.
The team placed five virus strains on six materials, from steel and plastic to cardboard and concrete, at room temperature. On smooth, non-porous surfaces, most strains died within a day and a half, though two lasted three days. On porous materials, all strains were gone within twelve hours. Steel cut virus levels the most. Strain and surface together shaped survival.
