Evaluation of a bovine viral diarrhea vaccine produced in a porcine kidney cell line.
An attenuated bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) live-virus vaccine, produced in a continuous porcine cell line, evoked an immune response which produced a protective level of serum antibodies in vaccinated cattle. Post-vaccinal reactions to the vaccinal virus were not observed in cattle vaccinated at 5 feedlots or in cattle vaccinated in experimental tests. The vaccinal virus did not produce demonstrable viremia or detectable excretion of virus from the respiratory or digestive tracts. Leukopenia or abnormality in differential leukocyte values did not occur as with virulent BVD viral infection. Transmission of vaccinal virus from vaccinated cattle to susceptible controls did not occur under conditions in which vaccinated and nonvaccinated cattle were in constant contact for 28 days.
