Pork MultiPath Plus™

Earlier, broader pathogen detection for pigs — established for the US market.

Respiratory and enteric pathogen surveillance, including PRRS virus detection, from a single submission.

Pork MultiPath Plus™ gives veterinarians and pork producers broader visibility across herd health by combining established respiratory or enteric MultiPath™ testing with dedicated PRRSV detection.

Sensitive molecular testing helps identify pathogen risks, understand pathogen load and support earlier, better-informed herd-health decisions.

Broader visibility across the herd

Don’t rely on one pathogen or one data point

Respiratory and enteric health challenges can involve multiple pathogens at the same time. Pork MultiPath Plus™ gives you a broader view, helping you investigate co-infection patterns, monitor population health and understand which pathogens are most relevant at different ages and production stages.

Use Pork MultiPath Plus™ to support:

Proactive surveillance

detect multiple relevant pathogens before relying on clinical signs alone.

Population-level monitoring

use practical pooled sampling approaches to follow pathogen trends across groups.

Co-infection investigation

see multiple pathogen results together rather than testing one target at a time.

Management decisions

generate data to support antimicrobial, vaccination, sanitation and biosecurity strategies.

One offering. Two targeted panels.

Choose the panel that matches the question you need to answer

Pork MultiPath Plus™ is available as respiratory and enteric testing, with PRRSV detection included across both offerings.

Sample the population, not just the individual

Flexible sampling for real production systems

Pork MultiPath Plus™ supports a range of sample types, giving veterinary and production teams flexibility to build surveillance around the herd rather than relying only on clinically affected individual animals.

Compatible sample types include:

Lung, tonsil and intestinal tissue

Nasal, tracheal, rectal, lung and tonsillar swabs

Pooled oral fluid rope samples

Faecal samples

Pooled faecal sock samples

Bioaerosol eDNA samples

Proven in commercial surveillance

Built for monitoring pigs through production

Pork MultiPath™ respiratory and enteric panels have been evaluated for surveillance screening on three commercial pig farms. Across a four-month period, pigs were monitored from weaner to finisher age using fortnightly pooled oral-fluid and faecal-sock sampling.

100% sample concordance

In comparative testing with USA, German and Australian-based diagnostic laboratories, Pork MultiPath Plus™ demonstrated 100% concordance on samples from each region.

Practical population-level surveillance with bioaerosols

Sample the air. Strengthen the surveillance picture.

Pathogen signatures can move through air, dust and the production environment. Genics Bioaerosol Sampling provides a practical, non-invasive way to add environmental surveillance without handling individual animals.

Genics Air Samplers are designed to be low-labour, easy to deploy and repeatable, with a straightforward 24–48 hour deployment before samples are preserved and returned to the laboratory.

Bioaerosol sampling can support:

Routine health surveillance
Environmental monitoring
Transport and movement surveillance
Biosecurity investigations

“We’ve added Genics Bioaerosol Sampling to our pig transport trucks as a practical, non-invasive way to capture an airborne snapshot during movements.”
Tom Barragy, General Manager — AgVolution

Add your microbiome to the picture

Pathogen detection answers one set of questions. Sometimes you need to understand what is happening across the wider bacterial community.

The Genics Microbiome Health Report uses complete 16S rRNA sequencing to assess bacterial community patterns across animals, environments and production zones. Results are delivered alongside expert interpretation to support investigation of trends and changes across production.

Use microbiome profiling for:

Baseline and drift monitoring
Track how bacterial community profiles change over time.

Biosecurity mapping between zones
Compare microbial communities between production areas.

Cleaning and sanitation assessment
Compare bacterial profiles before and after hygiene programs.

Gut health and performance monitoring
Investigate microbial stability through weaning and early production stages.

Full report available within 5 days of samples arriving at the Genics laboratory.
