- Abstract
Authors used a wild strain of classical swine fever virus Alfort A19, grown on PK15 cell culture. Virus is concentrated by ultrafiltration technique, inactivated with glycidaldehyde and then mixed with an oil adjuvant. Results have brought into evidence the absolute innocuousness of this vaccine and animals given 2 doses of 2.5 ml or 1 dose of 5 ml were resistant to a challenge 2 months after vaccination. Protection lasts one year, at least.
