IMPFSTOFF GEGEN DAS MAUL- UND KLAUENSÄURE-VIRUS

摘要

Early protection of susceptible animals against foot and mouth disease (FMD) may be achieved by inoculating the animals with a vaccine comprising an interferon DNA sequence. One day after inoculation, animals have been found protected from challenge with virulent foot and mouth disease virus. Co-administration with an effective foot and mouth disease virus vaccine provides protection prior to the development of specific immunity, a feature especially desireable during a FMD outbreak.
