INTRODUCTION

Protection against Swine Erysipelas (SE) and Porcine Parvovirus  (PPV) mainly comes from humoral immunity induced by  consecutive vaccinations. Therefore, when a serological analysis is  performed by means of a serological profile in a herd of vaccinated
breeders, it is expected that most of the sows will be seropositive.  If seronegative sows are detected in the herd, these sows represent  sub-populations exposed to diseases if they come into contact with  the reproductive pathogens during the gestation period1-3.
ERYSENG® PARVO is a new bivalent vaccine against SE and PPV,  adjuvanted with HIPRAMUNE® Gd.  The aim of this study was to compare the humoral immune  response to SE and PPV developed by two commercial vaccines,  ERYSENG® PARVO and Vaccine A (vaccine against SE, PPV and  Leptospira, adjuvanted with Amphigen®).
