The results obtained allow us to conclude that vaccination of gilts with UNISTRAIN® PRRS ID using a Hipradermic® device enabled the gilts to clear the virus and reduced its vertical and horizontal transmission to piglets.

The aim of this study was to demonstrate that UNISTRAIN® PRRS applied by the intradermal route (ID) with a Hipradermic® device in gilts controlled viraemia and vertical/horizontal transmission after heterologous PRRSV challenge.
