Gnotobiotic pigs receiving the various vaccination regimens were euthanized at PID 28/PCD 0 or PID 35/PCD 7 and LIC and SIC were collected the day of the euthanasia. IgM, IgA and IgG antibody titres to HRV were quantified by ELISA.
Proportions in the same column with different letters differ significantly (Fisher's exact test).
