چکیده

Significant differences exist between the immunogenicity of different commercial vaccines, and these differences should be considered in product selection. It is difficult to identify vaccines that generate significant immune responses to respiratory viruses. Anti-equine herpes virus type 1 (EHV-1) abortion vaccines outperform EHV-1 respiratory vaccines and could be considered for prevention of all forms of >EHV-1 infection.

Immune responses to commercial equine vaccines against equine herpesvirus-1, equine influenza virus, eastern equine encephalomyelitis, and tetanus.

Horses are commonly vaccinated to protect against pathogens which are responsible for diseases which are endemic within the general horse population, such as equine influenza virus (EIV) and equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1), and against a variety of diseases which are less common but which lead to greater morbidity and mortality, such as eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus (EEE) and tetanus. Thi...

Immunological Basis of Vaccination

Equine veterinarians are faced with new commercial vaccines, new efficacy claims, and potential side effects, combined with an increased awareness of the questionable efficacy of established vaccines. These complex issues require of equine veterinarians a more comprehensive understanding of vaccine immunology in order to be able to judge this information. The future promises further change and ...

Effect of MEtastiM® adjuvant on the immune response in horses vaccinated with killed a/equi/ Kentucky/97 equine influenza virus and challenged with the a/equi/Kentucky/07 strain

Killed-virus (KV) vaccines in general as well as all commercial KV equine influenza vaccines require an adjuvant to elicit a protective and prolonged immune response. Various adjuvants are available, with some proving more effective than others. MetastiM, a proprietary oil emulsion adjuvant, is used in a commercial equine influenza vaccine containing the KV a/equi/Kentucky/97 (KY97) strain Key ...

MHC IIB Genetic Diversity and its Association With Humoral Immune Responses in Commercial Turkey

Background: Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is one of the best characterized genetic regions controlling immune responses against vaccines. Identifying the association between MHC haplotypes and improved immune responses would be useful in genetic breeding strategies in animals. OBJECTIVES: MHC class II B genetic diversity and its association with humoral immune responses against Newcast...
