Biochemical Analysis of the Blood of Cattle after Vaccination with a Heterologous Vaccine for Lumpy Skin Disease.

We studied the biochemical parameters of the blood of cattle after immunization against lumpy skin disease with a vaccine made from an attenuated heterologous goat pox virus (strain G-LKV). Blood samples were obtained from animals on days 7, 14, and 21 after vaccination. The vaccine did not affect biochemical parameters of the blood.

Goatpox virus (G20-LKV) vaccine strain elicits a protective response in cattle against lumpy skin disease at challenge with lumpy skin disease virulent field strain in a comparative study.

In this comparative study, we examine the safety of the sheeppox (SPP) and goatpox (GTP) vaccines and the protective response of these vaccines in cattle against a virulent lumpy skin disease (LSD) field strain. The vaccine safety was tested in rabbits, mice and cattle using ten times recommended dose. In the safety trial, none of the vaccinated animals showed any deviation from physiological norms or fever, inappetence or local/ generalized skin reactions.

Protective immune response of oral rabies vaccine in stray dogs, corsacs and steppe wolves after a single immunization.

In this study the safety and protective immunity of an oral rabies vaccine, based on the live, modified rabies virus strain VRC-RZ2, was examined in stray dogs (Canis Sp.), corsacs (Vulpes corsac) and steppe wolves (Canis lupus campestris). In the safety group (dogs, n=6; corsacs, n=3; wolves, n=3) which was vaccinated with a 10-times field dose/animal, no animals showed any signs of disease or changes in behavior or appetite during the period of clinical observation, similar to the animals in the negative control group.
