A Comparison of the Antibody Responses between Specific Pathogen-Free and Commercial Layers Immunized with an Influenza Vaccine Prepared from Inactivated Non-Pathogenic H5N1 Virus by Single Shot
Abstract:ABSTRACT. It is known that antibody responses in chickens against invading organisms or antigens are considerably different among different lines. Thus, an avian influenza vaccine was prepared from inactivated whole particles of the virus of non-pathogenic strain A/ duck/Hokkaido/Vac-1/04 (H5N1) using an oil adjuvant containing anhydromannitol-octadecenoate-ether and injected intramuscularly into each ten 10-week-old specific pathogen-free (SPF) white leghorn chickens and commercial layers of Julia and Boris-B… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
