Experiment 1: Kinetics of total Ig against S. suis serotype 7 in vaccinated sows and their piglets. a Blood samples were collected at 7 weeks, 3 weeks and 1 week before farrowing from 25 vaccinated sows to follow the immune response. The vaccination protocol is shown in Fig. 1. Total Ig [IgG + IgM] titers were determined by ELISA. Arrows indicate 1st and 2nd vaccination doses. b Randomly selected piglets (n = 125; 5 piglets/sow) were sampled at 7 and 18 days of age and total Ig [IgG + IgM] titers were determined by ELISA against S. suis serotype 7. Individual antibody titers are shown with horizontal bars representing mean ± SEM. Values significantly different are shown in the graphs with corresponding P value
