Abstract
A live vaccine was produced using a local strain P of the virus of the transmissive gastroenteritis, arrenuated in cell cultures. The vaccinated pregnant sows had high-titer serum and colostrum virus-neutralizing antibodies. In the first days following farrowing there were in the colostrum ummunoglobulins of the Igg class that prevailed, however, IgA and IgM proved more effective in the virus-neutralizing test. Newborn pigs acquired passive immunity at about the 24th hour after the intake of colostrum. They withstood a challenge with a virulent virus.
