PRRSGard® is the industry’s first and only chimeric, modified-live PRRS vaccine

Modified-live vaccines (MLV) are a leading tool in reducing the incidence and severity of clinical PRRSV (porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome) infections. PRRSGard® is a modified-live PRRS vaccine with an innovative, chimeric construction to protect pigs from the PRRS virus. It is research-proven to be effective against lung lesions from pneumonia associated with the PRRS virus in growing pigs.
PRRSGard® is the next step in PRRS virus protection
PRRSGard® begins with a segment of an attenuated, lineage 1 PRRSV strain as the vaccine backbone. It is combined with a segment of MN 1-8-4, a virulent, contemporary lineage 1 PRRSV field isolate. Trials indicate this innovative design is safe, and the stimulated immunity provides protection from PRRSV-related diseases, allowing optimal performance and maximizing profitability.
PRRSGard® also includes a genetic insert in a non-encoding region. This insert can be used to differentiate a field strain from “wild-type” vaccine strains.
Investing for the future
We believe the development of innovative vaccines is an investment in the health of the swine industry. See the research for yourself.
PRRSGard® is safe
and efficacious.
PRRSGard® has low viral shed and
spread to naïve pigs.
Take the next step in
PRRS virus protection.
PRRSGard® is efficacious in reducing performance
loss and macroscopic lung lesions following a PRRSV 1-7-4 challenge.
PRRSGard® is efficacious in a heterologous trial as measured
by reduction in viremia, number of viremic pigs, lung lesions and average daily weight gain.
