Summary
Attenuated hog cholera MIYAGI strain (designated LOM strain) had a high antigenieity and was safely used without serum to immunize susceptible swine against hog cholera. Average yields of virus was 105 SC-PU per ml. of the cell free fluid collected from the BK monolayer culture.
Vaccine was administered by various route, i. e., subcutaneous injection, nostril instillation with hand-spray gun, aerosol or mixed with drinking water. The resistance was detected as early as 2–4 days after vaccination and maintained for more than 300 days. The LOM vaccine containing 103 SC-PU of virus could overcome the maternally transferred antibody and the resulting immunity lasted for a long period of time.
Lyophilized vaccine was stable for more than 540 days when kept at 4° C.
