[Comparative study of the immunogenic activity of 2 vaccines from strain K against swine plague]. 1977

K Dimitrov

The comparative testing of the immunogenic activity of vaccines produced with strain K cultured in cell cultures and rabbits has revealed that one vaccinal dose of the culture vaccine for pigs contains 1 000 reactogenic doses for rabbits and about 400 immunizing doses for pigs. In a vaccinal dose for pigs of a vaccine obtained from rabbits there are 400 reactogenic doses for rabbits and 100 immunizing doses for pigs. Swine fever-affected pigs treated with a vaccine of strain K, containing more than 100 immunizing doses per vaccinal dose, develop immunity that lasts not less than 12 months. Freeze-dried vaccines of strain K can be stored at ordinary refrigerator temperature in the course of one year, and at minus 20 to 30 degrees C--in the course of two years.

D013552	Swine	Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail.
