Since 2011, the emergence of Pseudorabies virus (PRV) variants has led to significant vaccine failures, resulting in severe economic losses in China's swine industry. Conventional PRV vaccines have shown limited efficacy against these emergent variants, underscoring the urgent need for novel immunization strategies. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a novel recombinant PRV vaccine candidate with improved safety and immunogenicity profiles.

However, current commercial vaccines are often unable to induce thorough protective immunity. In this study, a TK/gI/gE deleted recombinant PRV expressing GM-CSF was developed by using the HDR-CRISPR/Cas9 system.

According to various factors that influenced the output of laser, the theoretical calculation of its main parameters was conducted by Q-switched pulsed laser rate equations. Based on the results, the technical route and approach were presented for optimization design of this laser.
