Schematic of viral and antibody detection post exposure to PRRS: The following graph shows changes in concentration (Y-axis) over time (X-axis) of different analytes used in assays. After exposure to PRRS virus you will find virus in the blood of pigs (viremia) which often last anywhere between 2 to 4 weeks depending on the age and immune status of the pig. Seroconversion (antibody detection) usually occurs between 7 to 10 days post exposure and last for several months before becoming seronegative. Neutralizing antibodies appear between 4 to 6 weeks post exposure (López and Osorio, 2004).
