TABLE 2.
Prevalence and sow-associated mean group levels of anti-PCV2 IgG and serum neutralizing antibodies for nonvaccinated and noninoculated sows (group 1), sows vaccinated at 28 days of gestation (groups 2 and 3), and sows oronasally inoculated with PCV2b (groups 3 and 4) at 56 days of gestation
Group | No. of sows with IgG antibody/no. of sows in group (mean S/P ratio ± SE) on day of gestation
|
No. of sows with neutralizing antibody/no. of sows in group (mean antibody levela ± SE) on day of gestation
