  • Foot and mouth disease virus vaccine comprising interferons
    Patent number: 8058248
    Abstract: 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.
