    Journal: Prev Vet Med; 2000 Jun 12; 45(3-4):193-9. PubMed ID: 10821960.
    Abstract:
    One hundred and seven pregnant cows, which had been calfhood vaccinated with Brucella abortus strain 19 (S-19) were revaccinated with either S-19 or strain RB51 (S-RB51). All S-19-revaccinated animals seroconverted, while none of the RB51-revaccinated animals seroconverted. Two out of 25 (8%) S-19-revaccinated animals aborted, while none of the 57 RB51-revaccinated group aborted. Four of the S-19-revaccinated animals shed S-19 in the milk for at least 7 days, while only 1 cow shed S-RB51 for at least 3 days (but <7 days) post-parturition. Revaccination of strain 19 calfhood-vaccinated, pregnant cattle with S-RB51 appears to be a safe procedure with no diagnostically negative consequences.
