The purpose of this study was to investigate to protective effects against porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) infection in piglets by administration of the PEDV antiserum orally at 2 hrs, 24hrs and 36hrs after birth. six piglets administered the antiserum were experimentally infected with PEDV at five-day-old. Control group were four piglets infected with PEDV only. Clinical signs and gross, histopathological lesion and immunohistochemical findings were examined. The results obtained were as follows; 1. In clinical signs, piglets of the control group appeared the typical signs of severe watery diarrhea, depression and anorexia but piglets of the PEDV antiserum treated group recovered progressively. In mortality, control group showed 75%, but PEDV antiserum treated group showed 16.7%, respectively. 2. In gross findings, piglets of the control group appeared the typical findings of congestion, distension of lumen, containing curdes of undigested milk in stomach. But piglets of the PEDV antiserum treated group appeared milder than those of control group. 3. In histopathological findings, piglets of the control group appeared the typical findings of villous atrophy and fusion, congesion, exfoliation, vacuolation, squamation, loss of cilia and proliferation of crypt. But piglets of the PEDV antiserum treated group appeared milder than those of control group. 4. In immunohistochemical findings, piglets of the PEDV antiserum treated group showed more intensive in reaction for IgG and IgG than those of control group. The recation for IgA was stronger than that of IgG. It was concluded that oral administration of PEDV antiserum to piglets was effective in preventing PEDV infection and reduced their mortality.
