Abstract: A process for the manufacture of semi-plastic pharmaceutical unit doses using a rotary moulding machine and semi-plastic pharmaceutical dosage units obtained by this process.

Abstract: The present invention regards recombinant HVT (rHVT) constructs, useful as multivalent vector vaccine for poultry. The rHVT comprise 4 heterologous genes from poultry pathogens: the VP2 gene from IBDV, the F gene from NDV, and the gD and gI genes from ILTV. The VP2 and F genes are inserted in the Us genome region of the rHVT. The gD-gI genes are inserted in the UL genome region, either between UL44 and UL45, or between UL45 and UL46. The rHVTs proved to be genetically stable in vitro and in vivo, and expressed all inserted genes well enough to induce protective immunity in vaccinated poultry against IBDV, NDV, and ILTV.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods of treatment and prevention of mastitis in animals by orthosomycin antimicrobial compounds.

Abstract: A system for external fish parasites monitoring in aquaculture, the system comprising: a camera (52) suitable to be submerged in a sea pen suitable for containing comprising fish, the camera being arranged for capturing images of the fish; and an electronic image processing system (86) configured for identifying external fish parasites on the fish by analyzing the captured images, wherein: a ranging detector (54) configured for detecting the presence of fish and measuring a distance from the detector to the fish is mounted adjacent to the camera (52); and an electronic control system (12) is arranged to control a focus of the camera (52) on the basis of the measured distance and to trigger the camera (52) when a fish has been detected within a predetermined distance range.

Abstract: A Process for the Preparation of N-(bis(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl)-6-oxo-2-(pyridazin-3-yl)-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxamide with improved reaction conditions and reduced use of toxic reagents and solvents.

Abstract: The invention relates to a diagnostic use of an African Swine Fever Vims CD2v protein, a method, a device, and a kit for the detection of the presence of ASFV antibodies in a test sample, in particular the use thereof in a DIVA immunoassay.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new anthelmintic compounds. These compounds can for example be used in the treatment of the kind of worm disease caused by helminths such as Dirofilaria, in particular Dirofilaria immitis.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a vaccine comprising non-live antigen of a poultry pathogen and a mucoadhesive adjuvant, for use in boosting an immune response in a poultry animal directed against the poultry pathogen by administering the vaccine mucosally to the poultry animal. The invention also pertains to a vaccine comprising a liquid pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, a non-live antigen of a poultry pathogen and a mucoadhesive adjuvant, as well as a method of boosting an immune response in a poultry animal, which immune response is directed against a poultry pathogen, by administering a vaccine mucosally to the poultry animal, the vaccine comprising a non-live antigen of the said poultry pathogen and a mucoadhesive adjuvant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new anthelmintic compounds. These compounds can for example be used in the treatment of the kind of worm disease caused by helminths such as Dirofilaria, in particular Dirofilaria immitis.

Abstract: Currently, there is no effective vaccination against M. bovis on the market, and treatment options become increasingly limited due to restrictions in the use of, and resistance to antibiotics. This is complicated by results that demonstrate the induction of vaccine-enhanced disease, upon the use of certain M. bovis proteins as a vaccine. Thus, there is an urgent need for an effective and safe M. bovis vaccine. A novel vaccine composition was found that comprises one or more recombinant proteins which (combined) contain one or more epitopes from each of a set of specific M. bovis proteins. Vaccines based on these recombinant proteins were found to be safe, and were effective in protecting ruminants against infection and disease resulting from a severe challenge infection with M. bovis, as was apparent from a strong reduction of lung damage and colonisation of the trachea.

Abstract: The present invention provides a vaccine for canine Lyme disease and methods of making and using the vaccine alone, or in combinations with other protective agents.

Abstract: This invention is directed to a pharmaceutical composition for drinking water administration comprising isoxazoline compounds of formula (I) and a polysorbate surfactant and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (transcutol); and the use of the composition to treat or prevent parasite infestations of animals.

Abstract: The present invention relates to vaccines against influenza virus infection or disease for targets with pre-existing antibodies against influenza virus HA head domain. The invention regards a recombinant vector expressing a HA stem polypeptide, a vaccine comprising the vector or a host cell with said vector, uses of the vector, the host cell, or the vaccine, and methods for reducing influenza virus infection or disease. The recombinant vector can be a nucleic acid such as a eukaryotic expression plasmid or an RNA, a virus, or a replicon particle (RP). This vaccination allows for the induction of an early- and effective immune-response against Influenza virus induced infection or disease, not hindered by pre-existing anti-HA head domain antibodies.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the use of conjugated aflatoxin (AFB) in a method to protect an animal against AFB induced mycotoxicosis, in particular to protect against a decrease in average daily weight gain, immune suppression, icterus, hemorrhagic enteritis as a result of the ingestion of AFB.
