PRRS exists in two distinct forms, reproductive and respiratory, and infected farms may experience one or both. A variety of factors, including swine genetics, the specific PRRS virus variants in the herd, health status of the herd, ages of the animals involved, and pregnancy status, may influence the clinical signs.

In dimeric silicon dioxide there are two oxygen atoms bridging between the silicon atoms with an Si-O-Si angle of 94Â° and bond length of 164.6 pm and the terminal Si-O bond length is 150.2 pm.The Si-O bond length is 148.3 pm, which compares with the length of 161 pm in Î±-quartz.he solubility of silicon dioxide in water strongly depends on its crystalline form and is 3â4 times higher for silica than quartz; as a function of temperature, it peaks at about 340 Â°C.
