The humoral immune response of cattle vaccinated with leptospiral pentavalent outer envelope and whole culture vaccines was monitored with the microscopic agglutination (MA) test and the leptospiricidal activity (LA) test for a 2.5-year period. The serovars present in the vaccines were canicola, icterohaemorrhagiae, grippotyphosa, pomona, and hardjo. The LA test had greater sensitivity than the MA test for detecting antibodies to the hardjo, canicola, and icterohaemorrhagiae components of the pentavalent vaccine and was approximately equal in sensitivity to the MA test for detecting antibodies to the grippotyphosa and pomona components of the leptospiral vaccine. Both IgM and IgG were produced in similar amounts in the immunized cattle, and both classes were reactive in the MA and the LA tests. The IgM class of antibodies was more reactive in the MA test, whereas the IgG class of antibodies was more reactive in the LA test. Using the MA test as the criterion of evaluating, the immunogenic potency of the individual vaccine components was found to be canicola more than icterohaemorrhagiae more than grippotyphosa more than pomona more than hardjo. A direct correlation between protective antibodies, as determined by the hamster passive protection test, and antibodies reactive in the MA and the LA tests was observed.
