background: rotaviruses (rv) are important viral diarrheal agents in calves. vaccination is an optimum measure to prevent bovine rotaviruses (brv) infection. however, little research on brv vp7 vaccine has been done and currently there is no brv vaccine. objective: to prepare a subunit vaccine of brv and investigate its efficacy. methods: total rna was extracted from ma104 cells infected with b...

objective: influenza virus a (h1n1) is an important subtype of the influenza respiratory viruses, which has important worldwide implications. hemagglutinin (ha), an important viral antigen, is responsible for binding to human cell receptors leading to an onset of the disease process. considering the critical role of viral attachment, this study focuses on the extraction and cloning of ha and it...

brucellosis is a well-known infectious disease among domestic animals caused by brucella bacterium. omp25 is an outer membrane protein of brucella which plays an important role in immunogenicity of cells. moreover, brucella lumazine synthase (bls) as another main antigen can be used as an adjuvant when covalently attached to a foreign antigen. in the current study, designing and production of a...

Brucellosis caused by species of Brucella is among the most prevalent zoonoses with the annual incidence of half a million cases globally. Most parts of Iran are endemic for brucellosis, and the annual incidence of the human and animal brucellosis is still high. At present, there is no safe and protective human vaccine against brucellosis, and the only preventive strategy is animal vaccination,...

Avian Pasteurella multocida is the causative agent of fowl cholera, a disease much affecting the poultry industry. In order to study the efficacy of the recombinant subunit vaccine constructed with ptfA gene of avian P. multocida, the ptfA gene fragment amplified by PCR from avian P. multocida was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET32a and the recombinant plasmid pET32a-ptfA was o...

objective(s):brucellosis is a well-known domestic animal infectious disease, which is caused by brucella bacterium. groel antigen increases brucella survival and is one of the major antigens that stimulates the immune system. hence, the objective of the present study was cloning and bioinformatics analysis of groel gene. materials and methods: the full-length open reading frame of this gene was...

Objective(s):Brucellosis, especially caused by Brucella melitensis, remains one of the most common zoonotic diseases worldwide with more than 500,000 human cases reported annually. The commonly used live attenuated vaccine in ovine brucellosis prophylaxis is B. melitensis Rev1. But due to different problems caused by the administration of this vaccine, a protective subunit vaccine against B. me...

Background: Rotaviruses (RV) are important viral diarrheal agents in calves. Vaccination is an optimum measure to prevent bovine rotaviruses (BRV) infection. However, little research on BRV VP7 vaccine has been done and currently there is no BRV vaccine. Objective: To prepare a subunit vaccine of BRV and investigate its efficacy. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from MA104 cells infected with b...
