  • Publication number: 20120269823
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new isolate of Neospora caninum and to the extracts which may be produced therefrom. Said isolate presents a high degree of attenuation, which makes it suitable for the development of vaccines against neosporosis, and of diagnostic tests to detect infection by Neospora caninum in animals. It also describes pharmaceutical compositions wherein said isolate or extracts thereof are used for the prevention and treatment of the infections caused by Neospora caninum in animals.

  • Patent number: 7722882
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for obtaining an immunogenic, non-haemolytic strain of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae which is modified, at least in a segment of the apxIA gene and optionally in a segment of the apxIIA gene that encodes a transmembrane domain of the Apx haemolytic and cytolytic exotoxins. It comprises also the strains, and the attenuated live vaccine porcine pleuorpneumonia obtained therewith.

  • Patent number: 6323005
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the gene of transferrin-binding protein 1 (Tbp1) of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, its use to prepare products for vaccination against porcine pleuropneumonia and as diagnostic reagents. The invention also relates to the use of Tbp1 or fragments thereof to produce monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies to be used in diagnostic kits. The invention also relates to the use of Tbp1 or fragments thereof, alone or combined to other virulence factors of the pathogen, as vaccination products against porcine pleuropneumonia.
