Systemic and Local Humoral Immune Response against F-1 and LaSota Strains of New Castle Disease Virus in Chicken

PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF HUMORAL IMMUNE RESPONSE AGAINST MUSTARD GAS

One of the promising aspects of the immunological research on chemical war gas is to investigate the immunogenicity of some hazardous compounds such as mustard gas. Mustard gas is categorized as a "hapten" based on its physical and chemical properties. Haptenic chemicals which do not possess immunogenicity could be immunogenic experimentally when conjugated with a suitable protein carrier...

The Immunomodulatory Role of Calf Thymus Extract on Humoral and Cell Mediated Immune Response in Chicken Vaccinated Against New Castle Disease Virus

The effect of administration of calf thymus extract (CTE) with protein concentration of 1.8mg/ml was studied using two groups of day old layer chicks. Both the groups were vaccinated with 'F' and 'R2B' strains of New Castle Disease Virus (NDV) vaccines on 7th day and 8th week respectively. One group was administered with 1.8mg of thymic proteins intraperitoneally, one week prior and one week af...

Humoral Immune Response Induced by PLGA Micro Particle Coupled Newcastle Disease Virus Vaccine in Chickens

This experiment was conducted for evaluating the humoral immune responses induced by Poly Lactide-co-Glycolide Acid (PLGA) microspheres coupled inactivated Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) vaccine in comparison to an ‘in-house’ prepared inactivated and a live commercial vaccine. PLG microparticles containing inactivated NDV were prepared by a double emulsion technique based on solvent evaporation ...

Evaluation of Humoral and Cell-mediated Immunity of Two Capripoxvirus Vaccine Strains against Lumpy Skin Disease Virus

Background and Aims: Prevention of Lumpy skin disease (LSD) in cattle is heavily dependent on vaccination. Since the genetic structure of LSD virus has the close relatedness with other Capri-pox virus (CaPV). Therefore, the use of vaccine strains of CaPV derived from sheep and goat would be useful to protect cattle against LSD. Materials and Methods: The susceptible calves of dairy farms were ...
