Characterization of humoral immune response to pancreas disease virus (SAV-3) following immunization with whole inactivated virus vaccines and DNA vaccines
ABSTRACT Salmonid alphavirus type-3 (SAV-3) is the causative agent of pancreas disease (PD) in Atlantic salmon. It is associated with significant economic losses to the aquaculture industry. Vaccines can overcome losses through vaccination. In this study, anti-SAV-3 antibodies in plasma samples from...

Plasma samples at 1:50 dilution was found to have neutralizing antibodies using 100 TCID50 SAV-3, but additional testing showed no neutralization at 1:20, 1:40, 1:80, and 1:160 dilution of plasma samples tested on both chinook salmon embryo (CHSE-214) and chum salmon heart (CHH-1) cell lines.

In summary, immunization of Atlantic salmon with plasmid-encoded (DNA), inactivated whole virus vaccines or combined delivery of intraperitoneal and intranasal induced low levels of circulating antibodies tested by ELISA. Classical virus neutralization assays gave very low to no neutralizing titer.
