The efficacy of an inactivated CCoV vaccine (Duramune PC) was evaluated in four pups. Two dogs were maintained non-vaccinated. Ten days after the booster shot all the pups were challenged with a field CCoV strain administered by oro-nasal route. The vaccinated pups did not display clinical signs and shed the challenge-virus for 11.25 days, evaluated by virus isolation, and 13.5 days, evaluated by PCR assay. The two non vaccinated pups displayed mild diarrhoea at day post-challenge 4 and shed the challenge-virus for 14 and 15 days respectively, by virus isolation, and for 22 and 24 days respectively, by PCR assay.

Abstract

The efficacy of an inactivated CCoV vaccine (Duramune PC) was evaluated in four pups. Two dogs were maintained non-vaccinated. Ten days after the booster shot all the pups were challenged with a field CCoV strain administered by oro-nasal route. The vaccinated pups did not display clinical signs and shed the challenge-virus for 11.25 days, evaluated by virus isolation, and 13.5 days, evaluated by PCR assay. The two non vaccinated pups displayed mild diarrhoea at day post-challenge 4 and shed the challenge-virus for 14 and 15 days respectively, by virus isolation, and for 22 and 24 days respectively, by PCR assay.
