Antibody response
Antibody response
Research Question
- To establish the role of antibodies in protection
Research Gaps and Challenges
- Identify protective / neutralising antibodies
- Stimulate an efficient protective antibody response
- Investigate mucosal antibodies
Solution Routes
- Monitor the antibody response to infection with different strains
- Passive transfer and challenge experiments
State Of the Art
- Passive transfer of antibodies from immune pigs conferred partial protection to lethal challenge
