Vaccination Against Foot-and-Mouth Disease

Neutralizing Antibody Response in Cattle Following Vaccination against Foot-and-Mouth Disease

Developing Vaccines against Foot-and-Mouth Disease: a Biotechnological Approach

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a contagious viral disease of livestock with significant economic effect. It is prevalent in various regions of Asia, Africa, and South America. The causative agent of this disease is called foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), which is a member of Aphthovirus genus. Vaccination is an effective technique to prevent the complications of FMD and to eradicate the di...

Mass vaccination, immunity and coverage: modelling population protection against foot-and-mouth disease in Turkish cattle

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) in Turkey is controlled using biannual mass vaccination of cattle. However, vaccine protection is undermined by population turnover and declining immunity. A dynamic model of the Turkish cattle population was created. Assuming biannual mass vaccination with a single-dose primary course, vaccine history was calculated for the simulated population (number of doses and...

Simultaneous vaccination of piglets against foot-and-mouth disease and classical swine fever.

Six-week-old piglets, born of unvaccinated sows, were vaccinated against foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) with a trivalent, inactivated vaccine containing an adjuvant or vaccinated against classical swine fever (CSF) with a live attenuated vaccine or against both diseases simultaneously at two different sites. The antibody response to the FMD vaccine was not significantly influenced by the simultan...
