30. A Field Observation Piglets vaccinated at weaning with 0,5ml Circovac ® had lower wasting rates and lower field mortality, showing marked performance improvement of the vaccinated herd

32. Materials and Methods Evaluations were performed with piglets of different ages, from immunization to slaughter. Results between the vaccinated and control groups were always compared This study was one of the various evaluations which supported product claim for piglets in Brazil in 2008

37. RESULTS : TWG R1 & R2 Figure 1. From 21 to 65 days there was no significant weight gain difference. Although at the final, weight animals from vaccinated group (Circovac ® ) was bigger( 3,09 Kgs), when compared to the control group .
