The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antibody response against UBAC® vaccine antigen, the Biolm Adhesion Component (BAC), with different adjuvants. Moreover, the ability of the generated antibodies to inhibit biolm formation and to recognize different Streptococcus uberis strains was evaluated in vitro.

The adjuvant of the UBAC® vaccine (Hipramune®U) induced the greatest antibody levels against BAC antigen compared with other tested adjuvants. Moreover, these antibodies had the ability to reduce the S. uberis biolm formation in vitro and to recognize heterologous strains of S. uberis, in terms of geographical origin or in vitro biolm formation ability.
