Figure 1From: Evaluation of immune responses to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in pigs during early stage of infection under farm conditionsActive replication of PRRSV in infected pigs. Plasma collected from pigs on day 0 (n = 50) (pre-infection) and day 2 post-infection of infected (n = 25) and contact (n = 25) pigs was analyzed to determine the PRRSV titer by quantitative RT-PCR. (A) Results of PRRSV qRT-PCR in each ml of plasma (RNA copies in log10 values) and (B) viral load in plasma in log10 TCID50/ml are shown.Back to article page
