Abstract: The present invention relates to immunological compositions comprising sulpholipo-cyclodextrin (SL-CD) and, saponin or Quil A, and optionally at least one antigen. The invention relates to methods and immunological compositions comprising at least one antigen, which may be a veterinary antigen. The veterinary antigen in the methods and immunological compositions of the invention may be a bovine antigen. The invention relates to methods and immunological compositions comprising bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV), bovine herpesvirus 1 (IBR) or bluetongue virus (BTV). The invention comprises methods for eliciting an immune response against BEFV, IBR, or BTV in an animal, which comprises administering to the animal a composition of the invention. In the invention, particularly the immune response is a protective immune response. The invention comprises a method for preparing an immunological composition comprising adding Quil A to a virus.
