Swine are often asymptomatic carriers of Salmonella spp. Interventions are needed to limit Salmonella colonization of swine to enhance food safety. An attenuated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium mutant strain (BBS 202) was tested in swine to determine whether vaccination could provide protection against wild-type S. Typhimurium challenge. Two groups of piglets (n=14/group) received an intranasal inoculation of BBS 202 or a PBS placebo at 6-weeks of age with a booster 2-weeks later. At 11-weeks of age, all pigs were challenged with the parental, wild-type S. Typhimurium by intranasal inoculation.
