Abstract:Cell-associated Marek's disease (MD) vaccine was suspended at dilutions normally used for vaccination in seven commercially available diluents and in tryptose phosphate broth. The stability of diluted vaccines was determined by assay in cell cultures subjected to 0 to 37 C for 0 to 90 minutes. Optimum holding temperatures for MD vaccine virus survival varied with the specific diluents employed. Some diluents afforded greatest survival when dilution was at 0 C and held at 0 C, while others performed best when d… Show more
“…Osmotic pressure in the diluent was manipulated from 0 to 1000 mOsm/kg by addition of 0 to 3.18% sodium chloride respectively. There was a correlation between increased osmotic pressure and decreased virus survival [229]. Pressures above 475 mOsm/kg severely depressed virus survival, where the normal range of commercial diluents was 288 to 372 mOsm/kg [229].…”

“…Despite limitations such as procedural differences (thawing the vaccine under cold running water rather than with a room temperature water bath) and testing commercial diluents available at the time, the study gives insights into those factors affecting MD vaccines viability. The results showed that temperature plays a role on virus survival and that holding the vaccine diluent at 0 degrees Celsius was optimal regardless of initial diluent temperatures into which the vaccine was reconstituted [229]. The temperature of the diluent to which the vaccine was added also played a role, though some diluents performed best when vaccine was mixed at 25 degrees C and others when mixed at 0 degrees C. In a different study [230], it was found that reconstituting the vaccine in a refrigerated diluent (4 degrees C) rather than a room temperature diluent could lower the titers by 20%.…”

for the wealth of knowledge, friendship, and for the patience and kindness shown to me since the very beginning. To my wonderful committee, Drs. Oscar Fletcher, James Guy, and Hsiao-Ching Liu, for helping me improve and shaping me into a better scientist. Many thanks to all of the students I have shared my time with at the laboratory, especially Dr. Allison Boone and Arithat Limsatanun, with whom it has been a pleasure to work. Thanks to Dr. Tobias Käser and Amanda Amaral for their help with the microscope camera. I would like to thank my friends for believing in me, especially Rocio, Esther, Giselle, Michelle, Jasmine, Jaylin and Javi. Every one of our conversations is threaded into this accomplishment, making it yours. Thanks also to my work family, first for their understanding, but most importantly for the comradery and countless laughs that served as motivation during these years. Most importantly, thanks to my family, for always being there and for showering me with unconditional love. v TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES .

“…Therefore, MD vaccines are administered to chicks at hatch by subcutaneous or intramuscular inoculation or in ovo at ED18 via amniotic or intraembryonic route (Sharma and Burmester, 1982). Other factors such as mixing with antibiotics (Colwell et al, 1975;Eidson et al, 1978), joint administration with other vaccines (Rosenberger, 1983), or long delays in vaccination after reconstitution can also decrease vaccine titers. Only viable infected cells are capable of transmitting the vaccine virus, so handling is of crucial importance for a vaccine to retain its efficacy (Halvorson and Mitchell, 1979).…”
“…For example, vaccine particles grown in culture at specific ionic strengths may reequilibrate when introduced into solutions of different ionic strength resulting in osmotic swelling or contraction that diminishes the integrity of the vaccine. Marek's disease vaccine has been shown to be extremely sensitive to osmotic changes with an osmolarity of 745 mOsm/kg markedly reducing vaccine virus survival 24…”
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.
