Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention pertains to a vaccine for use in protecting a pig against an infection with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), the vaccine comprising non-live PEDV antigen and a non-metabolizable oil containing adjuvant, wherein the total amount of oil in the vaccine is less than 50% v/v, by administration of a dose of the antigen corresponding to at least 3.0E6 TCID 50 killed whole PEDV. The invention also pertains to a method of protecting a pig against an infection with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method to protect a pig against an infection with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) comprising administering to the pig a vaccine comprising non-live PEDV antigen and a non-metabolizable oil containing adjuvant, wherein the total amount of oil in the vaccine is less than 50% v/v, and the antigen is administered at a dose corresponding to at least 3.0E6 TCID 50 killed whole PEDV. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dose of the antigen corresponds to at least 1.5E7 TCID 50 killed whole PEDV. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the total amount of the oil is less than 40% v/v. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the oil is emulsified in an hydrophilic solvent. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the vaccine in addition to the non-metabolizable oil comprises vitamin E acetate. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antigen contains a polypeptide that corresponds to the C terminal two-third of the S1 domain of the spike protein of PEDV. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the polypeptide corresponds to the S1 domain of the spike protein of PEDV. 8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the polypeptide corresponds to the spike protein of PEDV. 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antigen is killed whole PEDV. 10. A vaccine to protect a pig against an infection with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) comprising non-live PEDV antigen and a non-metabolizable oil containing adjuvant, wherein the total amount of oil in the vaccine is less than 50% v/v, and the antigen is present in a concentration corresponding to at least 1.5E6 TCID 50 killed whole PEDV per ml.
