The present invention relates to the use of an immunogenic composition that comprises a porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) antigen for treatment of several clinical manifestations (diseases). Preferably, the clinical manifestations are associated with a PCV3 infection.

The invention relates to a novel porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) strain. The invention also relates to immunogenic compositions containing the novel PCV2 strain, PCV2 test kits, and applications of the novel PCV2 strain.

Vaccines of preferential administration via mucous membranes, for the control of viral diseases generated by infectious agents that use heparan sulfate (HS) as a cellular receptor consisting of an immunogenic formulation for veterinary use, comprising an antigen whose cellular receptor is heparan sulfate (HS), a vehicle for oral, intranasal or parenteral administration, wherein said vehicle corresponds to D-glucosamine and functionalized N-acetyl-D-glucosamine biopolymers, with sulfur atoms, and/or functionalized chitosan biopolymer, with sulfur atoms, and where the antigen is microencapsulated by said types of functionalized biopolymers.

The present invention relates to the use of an immunogenic composition that comprises a porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) antigen for treatment of several clinical manifestations (diseases). Preferably, the clinical manifestations are associated with a PCV3 infection.

The invention pertains to a combination of a first vaccine comprising anon-replicating immunogen of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) and a non-replicating immunogen of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, and a second vaccine comprising a live attenuated porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus, for use in prophylactically treating a pig against an infection with PCV-2, an infection with Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and an infection with PRRS virus, by associated separate injection of the first vaccine and the second vaccine into a tissue of the pig at a first and a second injection site respectively, wherein the first and second injection sites are at most 5 cm apart from each other.

The present invention relates to the use of an immunogenic composition that comprises a porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) antigen for treatment of several clinical manifestations (diseases). Preferably, the clinical manifestations are associated with a PCV2 infection. Preferably, they include lymphadenopathy, lymphoid depletion and/or multinucleated/giant histiocytes. Moreover, the clinical symptoms include lymphadenopathy in combination with one or a multiple of the following symptoms in pigs: (1) interstitial pneumonia with interlobular edema, (2) cutaneous pallor or icterus, (3) mottled atrophic livers, (4) gastric ulcers, (5) nephritis and (6) reproductive disorders, e.g. abortion, stillbirths, mummies, etc. Furthermore the clinical symptoms include Pia like lesions, normally known to be associated with Lawsonia intracellularis infections.
