NOBIVAC® INTRA-TRAC®3 EFFICACY

PROMOTES A STRONGER IGA RESPONSE THAN SUBCUTANEOUS VACCINATION16,17

  • IgA on mucosal surfaces appears to be more important than systemic responses when it comes to protecting against respiratory pathogens 18,19
    • Prevents microbes from adhering to mucosal surfaces of the nose and throat
    • Helps clear microbes trapped in mucus at the point of entry
  • Eliminated Bordetella shedding in controlled challenge 9 weeks after vaccination16
  • Significantly reduced cough scores and days of coughing16
