Ten-week-old pigs with high levels of maternally derived antibody (MDA) against Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) were given either a single intranasal vaccination or one or two doses (with an interval of three weeks) of commercially available attenuated ADV vaccines intramuscularly. The pigs did not produce a clear neutralising antibody response to ADV. However, pigs vaccinated intranasally and pigs given two doses of attenuated ADV vaccines were protected against intranasal challenge with virulent ADV two months after the first vaccination. Pigs given one parenteral dose of attenuated ADV vaccine were insufficiently protected. Protection was shown by shorter periods of growth arrest and fever and a greater reduction of virulent virus shedding after challenge in vaccinated pigs than in unvaccinated control pigs. Although intranasal vaccination conferred protection comparable to two parenteral doses of attenuated vaccines, it reduced shedding of virulent virus much more effectively. These results, together with those of other studies, show that intranasal vaccination confers better protection against Aujeszky's disease in pigs with MDA than parenteral vaccination. However, the efficacy of intranasal vaccination also decreases with increasing levels of MDA at the time of vaccination.  相似文献

Intranasal (IN) vaccination of pigs with low levels of maternally-derived antibody (MDA) has previously been shown to confer good protection against challenge with virulent Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV). The objective of the present study was to determine the efficacy of IN vaccination with an attenuated ADV, in comparison with that of an inactivated vaccine given parenterally, in pigs with higher MDA titres at the time of vaccination. In one experiment, vaccinations were done at 6 weeks of age, and in another experiment pigs were vaccinated at 4 and/or 9 weeks of age. Two months after (the last) vaccination pigs were challenged intranasally with a virulent ADV. Protection was evaluated on the basis of mortality, periods of growth arrest, fever and virus shedding after challenge. The presence of MDA markedly depressed the serum-neutralizing antibody response after vaccination. Sensitisation occurred after parenteral vaccination with an inactivated vaccine despite high MDA levels. Although the intranasally-vaccinated pigs had lower levels of neutralizing antibody at the time of challenge, they were significantly better protected than pigs given 1 or 2 doses of the inactivated vaccine. Comparing the present results with those of a previous study, it appears that the efficacy of parenteral as well as intranasal ADV vaccination decreases with increasing levels of MDA at the time of vaccination.  相似文献

Groups of pigs from vaccinated and unvaccinated sows were vaccinated once or twice between the ages of eight and 20 weeks with a commercial inactivated, oil adjuvanted Aujeszky's disease virus vaccine. Pigs were challenged by the oronasal route when 22 to 27 weeks old. Pigs from unvaccinated sows developed neutralising antibodies after vaccination but no seroconversion was detected in eight-week-old pigs or in 80 per cent of 15-week-old pigs from vaccinated sows. Challenge resulted in severe disease and weight loss in control pigs. In vaccinated animals the duration and severity of clinical signs and the amount of weight lost decreased with increasing serum neutralisation titres. The results indicate that parenteral vaccination at weaning with the vaccine described will not protect pigs at slaughter age against infection and disease, particularly if they were born from seropositive mothers.  相似文献

In this study, the efficacy of successive intranasal (i.n.)/intramuscular (i.m.) vaccination against Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) was assessed in experimental pigs. The double deletion-mutant Kaplan gE-gl- was used for i.n. vaccination at 4 weeks of age and the commercially available Bartha strain, suspended in an oil-in-water emulsion, was used for the i.m. booster vaccination at 10 weeks of age. Efficacy was compared with that of the traditional double i.m. vaccination with the commercially available Bartha strain at 10 and 14 weeks of age by challenging the pigs at the end of the fattening period. There were significant differences in clinical signs, mean daily weight gain, and virus excretion between the vaccinated groups and the unvaccinated controls; however, the differences between the vaccinated groups were not statistically significant.  相似文献

The development of a classical swine fever (CSF) subunit marker vaccine, based on viral envelope glycoprotein E2, and a companion diagnostic test, based on a second viral envelope glycoprotein E(RNS), will be described. Important properties of the vaccine, such as onset and duration of immunity, and prevention of horizontal and vertical transmission of virus were evaluated. A single dose of the vaccine protected pigs against clinical signs of CSF, following intranasal challenge with 100LD(50) of virulent classical swine fever virus (CSFV) at 2 weeks after vaccination. However, challenge virus transmission to unvaccinated sentinels was not always completely inhibited at this time point. From 3 weeks up to 6 months after vaccination, pigs were protected against clinical signs of CSF, and no longer transmitted challenge virus to unvaccinated sentinels. In contrast, unvaccinated control pigs died within 2 weeks after challenge. We also evaluated transmission of challenge virus in a setup enabling determination of the reproduction ratio (R value) of the virus. In such an experiment, transmission of challenge virus is determined in a fully vaccinated population at different time points after vaccination. Pigs challenged at 1 week after immunization died of CSF, whereas the vaccinated sentinels became infected, seroconverted for E(RNS) antibodies, but survived. At 2 weeks after vaccination, the challenged pigs seroconverted for E(RNS) antibodies, but none of the vaccinated sentinels did. Thus, at 1 week after vaccination, R1, and at 2 weeks, R=0, implying no control or control of an outbreak, respectively. Vertical transmission of CSFV to the immune-incompetent fetus may lead to the birth of highly viraemic, persistently infected piglets which are one of the major sources of virus spread. Protection against transplacental transmission of CSFV in vaccinated sows was, therefore, tested in once and twice vaccinated sows. Only one out of nine once-vaccinated sows transmitted challenge virus to the fetus, whereas none of the nine twice-vaccinated sows did. Finally, our data show that the E(RNS) test detects CSFV-specific antibodies in vaccinated or unvaccinated pigs as early as 14 days after infection with a virulent CSF strain. This indicates that the E2 vaccine and companion test fully comply with the marker vaccine concept. This concept implies the possibility of detecting infected animals within a vaccinated population.  相似文献

The period during which pigs are protected after vaccination is important for the successful usage of a marker vaccine against classical swine fever virus (CSFV) in an eradication programme. In four animal experiments with different vaccination-challenge intervals we determined the duration of protection of an E2 subunit marker vaccine in pigs after a single vaccination. Unvaccinated pigs were included in each group to detect transmission of the challenge virus.Three groups of six pigs were vaccinated once and subsequently inoculated with the virulent CSFV strain Brescia after a vaccination-challenge interval of 3, 51/2, 6 or 13 months. All vaccinated pigs, 16 out of 18, with neutralising antibodies against CSFV at the moment of challenge, 3, 51/2, 6 or 13 months later, survived, whereas unvaccinated control pigs died from acute CSF or were killed being moribund. A proportion of the vaccinated pigs did however develop fever or cytopenia after challenge and two vaccinated pigs were viremic after challenge. Virus transmission of vaccinated and challenged pigs to unvaccinated sentinel pigs did not occur in groups of pigs which were challenged 3 or 6 months after a single vaccination. Two out of eight vaccinated pigs that were found negative for CSFV neutralising antibody at 13 months after vaccination died after subsequent challenge.The findings in this study demonstrate that pigs can be protected against a lethal challenge of CSFV for up to 13 months after a single vaccination with an E2 subunit marker vaccine.  相似文献

Serum samples and bodyweights were taken at regular intervals for six to seven months from piglets, born to foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccinated or unvaccinated sows, which had been vaccinated at one, two, four or eight weeks old. Young pigs, devoid of maternally derived antibodies (MDA), were capable of responding to FMD vaccination at one week old, with no deleterious effects on their growth rate. However, their immunity to experimental infection at six to seven months old was poor (33.3 per cent). Vaccination of four or eight-week-old piglets, born to unvaccinated sows, protected 87.5 per cent from a similar challenge. In piglets, born to FMD vaccinated sows, the MDA had a suppressive effect on the early vaccination response. This suppression, which was affected by the titre of MDA present in the piglets at the time of vaccination, was complete in one-, two- and four-week-old piglets and partial in eight-week-old piglets. Furthermore, none of these piglets were immune to experimental infection at six to seven months old.  相似文献

Different deleted Aujeszky's disease vaccines were compared for their ability to induce an immunity which suppresses virus excretion optimally upon infection. Groups of pigs were vaccinated once with attenuated deleted Aujeszky's disease vaccine (gI, gX or gp63 negative), suspended in phosphate buffered saline. Two additional groups were vaccinated with a gI deleted vaccine virus suspended in an oil-in-water emulsion. Other groups were vaccinated twice with gI deleted inactivated vaccines. The three control groups included were: pigs immune after infection, unvaccinated pigs and pigs receiving vaccine without known deletion in the envelope. Experimental challenge took place 3 or 4 weeks after the only or the last vaccination. The number of excreting pigs, the duration of excretion and the virus titers excreted, were determined for all the groups. All the pigs vaccinated with glycoprotein deletion vaccines suspended in phosphate buffered saline, excreted virus for 2 to 6 days after challenge. A 100 to 1000 fold reduction in excreted virus titers was obtained in vaccinated pigs compared to unvaccinated ones. Some vaccines suppressed virus excretion better than others, but no correlation could be made between the type of deletion (gI, gX or gp63) and the degree of reduction in virus excretion. Similar results were obtained with two applications of inactivated vaccines. The lowest number of excreting pigs, the lowest duration of excretion and the lowest titers were obtained in groups vaccinated with the attenuated vaccine suspended in an oil-in-water emulsion. No vaccine suppressed virus excretion totally.  相似文献

The efficacy of a commercial swine influenza vaccine based on A/New Jersey/8/76 (H1N1) and A/Port Chalmers/1/73 (H3N2) strains was tested against challenge with an H1N2 swine influenza virus. Influenza virus-seronegative pigs were vaccinated twice with the vaccine when they were four and eight weeks old, or with the same vaccine supplemented with an H1N2 component. Control pigs were left unvaccinated. Three weeks after the second vaccination, all the pigs were challenged intratracheally with the swine influenza strain Sw/Gent/7625/99 (H1N2). The commercial vaccine induced cross-reactive antibodies to H1N2, as detected by the virus neutralisation (VN) assay, but VN antibody titres were 18 times lower than in the pigs vaccinated with the H1N2-supplemented vaccine. The challenge produced severe respiratory signs in nine of 10 unvaccinated control pigs, which developed high H1N2 virus titres in the lungs 24 and 72 hours after the challenge. Vaccination with the commercial vaccine resulted in milder respiratory signs, but H1N2 virus replication was not prevented. Mean virus titres in the pigs vaccinated with the commercial vaccine were 1-5 log10 lower than in the controls at 24 hours but no different at 72 hours. In contrast, the H1N2-supplemented vaccine prevented respiratory disease in most pigs. There was a 4-5 log10 reduction in the mean virus titre at 24 hours in the pigs vaccinated with this vaccine, and no detectable virus replication at 72 hours. These data indicate that the commercial swine influenza vaccine did not confer adequate protection against the H1N2 subtype.  相似文献

The immunity to infectious bronchitis afforded by spray vaccination of mycoplasma free two days-old broilers with maternal antibodies to infectious bronchitis virus was tested by comparing zootechnical scores, clinical signs, macroscopical and microscopical changes, frequency of infectious bronchitis virus isolation following challenge at one, three and five weeks of age in vaccinated, unvaccinated, challenged and unchallenged birds. This vaccination gave a very good protection to infectious bronchitis for the most part of broiler economical life; growth delays were especially avoided. However, vaccinated and unvaccinated one-week-old birds were not protected enough. No correlation was observed between haemagglutinating antibodies titres and protection. At last this vaccination caused a notable reaction in specific pathogen free control birds of the same age.  相似文献

A standardized test was developed to compare the efficacy of Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) vaccines under laboratory conditions. Per test 3 groups of 6 to 8 sero-negative pigs were used. The first vaccination was done at 10 weeks of age. One group was vaccinated once, another was vaccinated twice and the 3rd served as control. Pigs were challenge exposed to the virulent NIA-3 strain of ADV 12 weeks after the first vaccination. Apart from mortality, average periods of growth arrest, fever and virus shedding after challenge were used as parameters to evaluate vaccine efficacy. Two inactivated and 4 attenuated vaccines were tested. Two attenuated vaccine viruses were excreted after vaccination. Despite maximal standardization, a considerable variation still existed between the experiments in mortality and growth arrest periods of control pigs after challenge. However, the controls were always more severely affected than the vaccinated pigs. All vaccines except one were effective in preventing death after challenge, but none conferred complete protection. Most vaccinated pigs still lost weight, developed fever and shed virus after challenge. Revaccination after 3 or 4 weeks had little effect, particularly with the attenuated vaccines. The results of the present study indicate that 2 of the attenuated vaccines conferred the best protection, 1 attenuated vaccine appeared to be as effective as the 2 inactivated ones, and the 4th attenuated vaccine was least effective.  相似文献

In this study, an intranasal immunization strategy was set up in maternally immune pigs in order to protect them not only clinically but also virologically. Two genetically engineered Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) strains, Kaplan gE-gI- and Kaplan gE-gC-, were used for intranasal immunization. Both strains were safe for 4-week-old pigs. A single intranasal inoculation of 10(6.0) TCID50 of Kaplan gE-gI- and Kaplan gE-gC- at 4 weeks of age in the presence of moderate titres of maternally derived antibodies (SN titres: 12-16) reduced the amount of weight loss, fever and virus excretion upon challenge 6 weeks later. In a second experiment, the effect of an additional intramuscular booster with three different commercial vaccines (containing attenuated Bartha or NIA3-783 or inactivated Phylaxia; all suspended in an oil-in-water emulsion) at 10 weeks of age was evaluated. One month after the last intramuscular booster, between five and seven pigs from each group were selected for challenge. All intranasally/intramuscularly immunized pigs showed a significantly better clinical and virological protection after challenge than the single intranasally immunized pigs. In the double immunized group, the protection was better when Kaplan gE-gC- was used for the intranasal priming (only two of 14 pigs excreted virus with a duration of 4 days) than when Kaplan gE-gI- was used (13 of 18 pigs excreted virus with a duration ranging from 1 to 4 days). The virological protection was not influenced by the type of vaccine used for booster vaccination. Because the intranasal/intramuscular immunization approach is very compatible with current pig movements on farms and pigs with moderate levels of maternally derived antibodies can effectively be immunized, it can be considered as a good alternative to intramuscular/intramuscular vaccinations especially in regions with a high ADV prevalence.  相似文献

Summary

A standardized test was developed to compare the efficacy of Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) vaccines under laboratory conditions. Per test 3 groups of 6 to 8 sero‐negative pigs were used. The first vaccination was done at 10 weeks of age. One group was vaccinated once, another was vaccinated twice and the 3rd served as control. Pigs were challenge exposed to the virulent NIA‐3 strain of ADV 12 weeks after the first vaccination. Apart from mortality, average periods of growth arrest, fever and virus shedding after challenge were used as parameters to evaluate vaccine efficacy.

Two inactivated and 4 attenuated vaccines were tested. Two attenuated vaccine viruses were excreted after vaccination. Despite maximal standardization, a considerable variation still existed between the experiments in mortality and growth arrest periods of control pigs after challenge. However, the controls were always more severely affected than the vaccinated pigs. All vaccines except one were effective in preventing death after challenge, but none conferred complete protection. Most vaccinated pigs still lost weight, developed fever and shed virus after challenge. Revaccination after 3 or 4 weeks had little effect, particularly with the attenuated vaccines. The results of the present study indicate that 2 of the attenuated vaccines conferred the best protection, I attenuated vaccine appeared to be as effective as the 2 inactivated ones, and the 4th attenuated vaccine was least effective.  相似文献

Seven deleted Aujeszky's disease vaccines were compared for their ability to induce an immunity which suppresses virus excretion. For each vaccine, the levels of clinical protection and viral excretion were compared. Groups of eight pigs were vaccinated twice with attenuated deleted Aujeszky's disease vaccines (which do not express certain glycoproteins: gI, gX or gp63). Pigs were vaccinated at the beginning of the fattening period and challenge took place at the end of it when the pigs were 18-19 weeks old. Live virus vaccines were suspended in water or in an oil-in-water emulsion. The experiment was performed in three successive assays of two groups of eight pigs (except three groups for the first assay). At each assay, a control unvaccinated group of eight pigs was added to compare the effects of challenge between vaccinated and unvaccinated animals. In total, 80 pigs were involved in this experiment. All the vaccinated pigs excreted virus from 3 to 9 d after challenge. However the level of viral excretion and the duration of the period of excretion were reduced after vaccination and especially, when oil-in-water emulsion was used. There were obvious differences between vaccines. With some vaccines, when the level of viral excretion was low, the level of clinical protection was high. However, in other cases, the level of clinical protection could be good despite a higher level of viral excretion. The seroneutralizing titres were significantly and inversely related to a low level of viral excretion but not to the level of clinical protection.  相似文献

Several Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) vaccination protocols of sows were evaluated with regard to the passive protection conferred on piglets in a recently built commercial farm. Three different groups of sows were vaccinated using a Bartha K-61 strain. One group received an inactivated vaccine during pregnancy and the other two groups received attenuated vaccines, either during pregnancy (day 65) or on the seventh day of lactation. At farrowing, sows vaccinated during lactation had lower seroneutralization titres than those vaccinated during pregnancy either with inactivated or attenuated vaccines. Accordingly, their piglets were the ones with lower levels of maternally transferred neutralizing antibodies. At 4 weeks of age, five piglets born of each group of sows were challenged intranasally with a neurotropic strain of ADV. Piglets born of sows vaccinated during pregnancy with inactivated and attenuated vaccines gained 1.50 kg bodyweight and 2.50 kg bodyweight during 7 days, respectively, and did not show clinical signs, while piglets from sows vaccinated during the previous lactation lost 0.60 kg and presented moderate to severe clinical signs of ADV. Vaccination of sows during pregnancy provided more protection against ADV for piglets than sow vaccination before mating. Piglets born from sows vaccinated with attenuated or inactivated vaccines did not present remarkable differences on protection.  相似文献

Serum samples were collected from 30 piglets, derived from 17 litters, whose dams had been vaccinated against leptospirosis. Microscopic agglutination test (MAT) titres against Leptospira interrogans serovar pomona varied greatly from pig to pig; there was less variation among littermates. Titres declined between 4 and 10 weeks of age, with an uncorrected half-life of 15.5 days, consistent with IgG being the main antibody class involved. Twelve pigs, 4 derived from unvaccinated sows and 8 from sows vaccinated against leptospirosis, were challenged intravenously at 8 weeks of age with leptospires of serovar pomona. Colostrum-derived antibody protected 4 out of 8 pigs, and in 1 of the remaining 4 the serological response was reduced. Three of the protected pigs showed reduced serological responses and in the fourth the response was strong, but delayed. All of the pigs derived from unvaccinated sows developed leptospiraemia and leptospiruria and showed strong serological responses. Protection by colostrum-derived antibody bore an inexact relationship to MAT titre, but a titre of 16 appeared to be sufficient for protection.  相似文献

The efficacy of a muramidase-released protein (MRP) and extracellular factor (EF) vaccine in preventing infection and disease in pigs challenged either with a homologous or a heterologous Streptococcus suis serotype 2 strain (MRP+EF+) was compared with the efficacy of a vaccine containing formalin-killed bacterin of S. suis serotype 2 (MRP+EF+). The enhancement of the immune response by different adjuvants (a water-in-oil emulsion [WO] and an aluminium hydroxide-based adjuvant [AH]) and their side effects were also studied. The MRP and EF were purified by affinity chromatography. Pigs were vaccinated twice at three weeks and six weeks of age and challenged intravenously with virulent S. suis serotype 2 strains (MRP+EF+) at eight weeks of age. At challenge, the pigs vaccinated with MRP+EF/WO had high anti-MRP and anti-EF titres and were protected as effectively as pigs vaccinated with WO-formulated vaccines with bacterin. Eight of the nine pigs survived the challenge and almost no clinical signs of disease were observed. The titres obtained with the MRP+EF/AH vaccine were low and only two of the five pigs were protected. Pigs vaccinated with either MRP or EF were less well protected; three of the four pigs died after challenge but the clinical signs of disease were significantly less severe than those observed in the placebo-vaccinated pigs. The protective capacity of the bacterin/AH vaccine was very low, and the mortality among these pigs was as high as in the placebo-vaccinated pigs (80 per cent). Postmortem histological examination revealed meningitis, polyserositis and arthritis in the clinically affected pigs. The results demonstrate that a subunit vaccine containing both MRP and EF, formulated with the WO adjuvant, protected pigs against challenge with virulent S. suis type 2 strains.  相似文献

Two commercial Aujeszky's disease vaccines, a modified killed vaccine and a sub-unit vaccine, both carrying a deletion of glycoprotein-I, were evaluated in pigs. Each vaccine was administered to two groups of four pigs, twice at 4-week intervals, with two pigs held as unvaccinated controls. All pigs were challenged with a New Zealand field isolate of Aujeszky's disease virus 3 weeks after the second vaccination. The results indicate that the sub-unit vaccine was able to protect pigs against clinical Aujeszky's disease much better than the pigs vaccinated with the modified killed vaccine when challenged with a virulent virus. However, the amount and the duration of virulent virus excretion following challenge was greater with the sub-unit vaccine than the modified killed vaccine. Pigs vaccinated with the sub-unit vaccine were shown to be latently infected following challenge. Latent infection was demonstrated by excretion of Aujeszky's disease virus from the nasal cavity after dexamethasone treatment and seroconversion of a sentinel in contact pigs to Aujeszky's disease virus.  相似文献

Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) envelope glycoprotein gVI (gp50) was purified from virus-infected Vero cells by ion-exchange and immunoaffinity chromatography and its usefulness as a subunit vaccine was evaluated in active and passive immunization studies. Four-week-old piglets were immunized intramuscularly (IM) with purified gVI twice two weeks apart and challenged intranasally (IN) 10 days after the second immunization with 30 LD50 (10(8)PFU) of a virulent strain of ADV. Pigs, vaccinated with 100 micrograms of purified gVI, produced virus neutralizing antibodies and did not develop clinical signs after challenge exposure. The challenge virus was not isolated from nasal swabs and tonsils of gVI-vaccinated pigs, whereas non-vaccinated control pigs developed illness after challenge exposure with the same virulent ADV strain which was later recovered from their nasal swabs and tonsils. Pregnant sows vaccinated twice with purified gVI (IM) at a three week interval produced virus neutralizing antibodies in colostrum. Four-day-old sucking piglets born of vaccinated sows were passively protected by colostral antibodies against intranasal challenge with a lethal dose of virulent ADV. Sera from gVI-vaccinated pigs were distinguished from experimentally infected swine sera by their differential reactivity in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using four major viral glycoproteins (excluding gVI) as antigen purified by the use of lentil-lectin.  相似文献

The K strain of Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) grown in Vero cells was used to vaccinate pigs. Following intramuscular inoculation, the pigs remained healthy, no vaccine virus was excreted and virus could be detected only at the inoculation site. One inoculation gave good protection against challenge with a virulent strain of ADV, and the amount of virulent ADV excreted was geatly curtailed. Following vaccination only low leads of serum neutralizing antibody were detected (geometric mean titre 1/2), but three weeks after challenge very high levels were found (GMT 1/1773). Intranasal vaccination gave similar results. There was minimal excretion of vaccine virus. The clinical reaction on challenge was less severe than in the intramuscularly challenged group, although lower antibody levels were detected three wekks following challenge (GMT 1/483). A field trial, using this strain given subcutaneously, indicated that one inoculation of this vaccine is effective.  相似文献
