The ability of two antigens, termed EV and CM, derived from bovine herpesvirus 1 infected cultures to produce serum-virus neutralizing antibodies has been studied in cattle. Both EV and CM when inoculated with adjuvant induced significant increases in serum-virus neutralizing antibody titers. Control groups inoculated in a similar manner failed to induce significant increases in serum-virus neutralizing antibody. Some of the animals were vaccinated, then were bred, challenged with a virulent strain of bovine herpesvirus 1 and held until calving was completed. During this 18-month period titers declined slowly in the vaccinated animals. Proportionally there were fewer live calves born to the control cattle than to the CM vaccinated group but reduction was not large enough to conclude that this vaccine had protected the cattle against the abortigenic activity of bovine herpesvirus 1. Further challenge studies should be made to determine whether the administration of these antigens can prevent the subsequent onset of the clinical signs associated with bovine herpesvirus 1.
