Effect of strain-specific maternally-derived antibodies on influenza A virus infection dynamics in nursery pigs. [PDF]
Reducing the number of influenza A virus (IAV) infected pigs at weaning is critical to minimize IAV spread to other farms. Sow vaccination is a common measure to reduce influenza levels at weaning.

Interaction between maternally derived antibodies and heterogeneity in exposure combined to determine time-to-first Plasmodium falciparum infection in Kenyan infants [PDF]
Background Studies of the association between the level of anti-malarial antibody and protection from malaria infection can yield conflicting results if they fail to take into account differences in the malaria transmission rate.

Early-life hepatitis e infection in pigs: the importance of maternally-derived antibodies. [PDF]
Passive immunity (PI), acquired through colostrum intake, is essential for piglet protection against pathogens. Maternally-derived antibodies (MDAs) can decrease the transmission of pathogens between individuals by reducing shedding from infected animals

The porcine circovirus 3 humoral response: characterization of maternally derived antibodies and dynamic following experimental infection [PDF]
Since Porcine Circovirus 3 (PCV3) was first identified in 2016, our understanding of the humoral response is still relatively scarce. Current knowledge of the PCV3 humoral response is primarily based on field studies identifying the seroprevalence of ...

Age-based host response to turkey arthritis reovirus in commercial turkeys in the presence of maternally derived antibodies [PDF]
Background Turkey arthritis reovirus (TARV) causes arthritic lameness in market-age turkeys. Since 2011, highly pathogenic TARV strains have caused significant economic losses in the turkey industry due to increased culling, reduced market weights, and ...

High levels of maternally derived antibodies do not significantly interfere with the development of humoral and cell-mediated responses to Porcine circovirus 2 after intradermal vaccination [PDF]
Background Vaccination of pigs against PCV2 is usually performed around weaning when animals still have maternally derived antibodies (MDA). The present study aimed to assess the possible interference of MDA in the development of the PCV2-specific immune

In-ovo Newcastle disease virus vaccine strain TS09-C protects commercial chickens against Newcastle disease in the presence of maternally derived antibodies [PDF]
Maternally derived antibodies (MDA) substantially interfere with active immunity in post-hatch vaccination, although they provide early protection against disease through passive immunity in young chickens.

The influence of maternally derived antibodies on protection against aMPV/A infection in TRT vaccinated turkeys [PDF]
Avian metapneumoviruses (aMPV) are a causative agent of turkey rhinotracheitis (TRT). Despite vaccination, cases of TRT outbreaks are frequently reported.

Haemagglutinin antigen selectively targeted to chicken CD83 overcomes interference from maternally derived antibodies in chickens [PDF]

Proper Timing of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Vaccination of Piglets with Maternally Derived Antibodies Will Maximize Expected Protection Levels [PDF]
We investigated to what extent maternally derived antibodies interfere with foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccination in order to determine the factors that influence the correct vaccination for piglets.
