Pharmacotherapeutic group: Immunologicals for Suidae; live bacterial vaccine.

ATCvet code: QI09AE03.

To stimulate active immunity against enterotoxigenic F4-positive and F18-positive E. coli in pigs.

The vaccine induces an intestinal immunity and a serological response against F4-positive and F18-positive E. coli in pigs.

The vaccine confers cross protection against F18ab-positive E. coli, as demonstrated by challenge for both the 7-day onset of immunity and the 21-day duration of immunity. Antibodies triggered by the vaccine provide cross-reactivity against F4ab and F4ad-positive E. coli strains.
