Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) is endemic in Cuba and is one of the major health problems of the Cuban swine industry. The current efforts to control the disease in Cuba include vaccination with Porvac®, a subunit marker vaccine. Although the efficacy of Porvac against CSF virus (CSFV) subgenotype 1.4 has been extensively documented, little is known about the ability of the antibodies induced by this vaccine to neutralize other CSFV genotypes. In this study, sera collected from three pigs vaccinated with Porvac were able to efficiently neutralize CSFV strains belonging to genotypes 1, 2, and 3. The findings from this study indicate that additional in vivo studies are warranted to confirm the ability of this vaccine to protect pigs against CSFV genotypes 2 and 3.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Virology publishes original contributions from all branches of research on viruses, virus-like agents, and virus infections of humans, animals, plants, insects, and bacteria. Coverage spans a broad spectrum of topics, from descriptions of newly discovered viruses, to studies of virus structure, composition, and genetics, to studies of virus interactions with host cells, organisms and populations. Studies employ molecular biologic, molecular genetics, and current immunologic and epidemiologic approaches. Contents include studies on the molecular pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and genetics of virus infections in individual hosts, and studies on the molecular epidemiology of virus infections in populations. Also included are studies involving applied research such as diagnostic technology development, monoclonal antibody panel development, vaccine development, and antiviral drug development.Archives of Virology wishes to publish obituaries of recently deceased well-known virologists and leading figures in virology.
