brucella is a facultative intracellular pathogen, and brucellosis is commonest zoonotic disease worldwide. brucella species, isolated from domestic animals, are important pathogen for humans. annually, more than 500,000 new cases of brucellosis are reported, and this figure is an underestimate due to extended under-reporting cases in several endemic countries. brucella has a variety of virulenc...

background and objectives: brucellosis is an important health problem in developing countries and no vaccine is available for the prevention of infection in humans. because of clinically infectious diseases and their economic consequences in human and animals, designing a proper vaccine against brucella is desirable. in this study, we evaluated the immune responses induced by a designed recombi...

background : boophilus annulatus is an obligate blood feeder tick that can cause great losses in animals due to anemia and its ability to injure its host skin directly. the aim of this study was identification of cattle humoral immune response to some tick proteins during experimental infestation. methods : immune sera against tick were collected from experimentally infested cattle with ticks. ...

abstract background: varicella is a highly contagious and dangerous disease especially in immunocompromised patients. children with cancer are at increased risk of severe illness and may fatal cases occur. vaccination from vzv ( varicella zoster vaccine) infection can be safe, immunogenic, and effective in children with leukemia who meet the criteria and are at the risk of serious disease or de...

Compared to other methods of vaccine production, (e.g. culture flask and bioreactor system), the roller culture method for producing rabies vaccine is simpler, and the equipment easier to install and maintain, and also in the event of contamination of one roller, the entire batch need not be discarded. This system provides a much larger surface area than the culture flask, and also ensures a mu...
