  1. aThe viral titers and viral RNA in pig plasma was detected and duplicated by micro-plaque assay and real-time RT-PCR at 2 DPI. bThe viral RNA was quantified in duplicate samples of tonsils, lymph nodes, and brain from infected pig at 8 DPI by real-time RT-PCR. cThe highest body temperature of swine was indicated during 8 days post-challenge. dIn comparing FRμNT50 at 8 DPI to the value before challenge, a fold increase was indicated and a ≥4-fold increase was noted by an asterisk.
