a

HAI titers were determined in serum at 0 and 3 dpc and BALF after sacrifice at 3 dpc using 4 HA units of A/Sw/Eng/1353/09 virus. Results shown are the mean of six animals ± SD. As a positive control, serum from pigs immunized with commercial A(H1N1)pdm09 vaccine Pandemrix (GlasxoSmithKline) and challenged with A/England/195/09(pdmH1N1) virus as described (6) was used and gave a titer of 2048.

b

MN titers were determined in serum at 13 dpb and 3 dpc and BALF after sacrifice at 3 dpc using 100 PFU A/Sw/Eng/1353/09 virus. Results shown are the mean of six animals. Serum and BALF collected from A/Sw/Eng/1353/09 virus–infected pigs at 14 dpc were used as controls with both giving a titer of 80.

c

IgG and IgA titers in BALF after sacrifice at 3 dpc. Results shown are the mean of six pigs ± SD. As a positive control, BALF collected from A/Sw/Eng/1353/09 virus–infected pigs at 14 dpc was used and gave an endpoint titer of 1024 for IgA and 128 for IgG.
