Abstract:
The present invention provides recombinant Gallid herpesvirus 3 (MDV-2) vectors that contain and express antigens of avian pathogens, recombinant Gallid herpesvirus 3 (MDV-2) vectors that contain a mutated gC gene, compositions comprising the recombinant Gallid herpesvirus 3 (MDV-2) vectors, polyvalent vaccines comprising the recombinant Gallid herpesvirus 3 (MDV-2) vectors and one or more wild type viruses or recombinant vectors. The present invention further provides methods of vaccination against a variety of avian pathogens and method of producing the recombinant Gallid herpesvirus 3 (MDV-2) vectors.
Abstract:
The application discloses therapeutic vaccines based upon the “pING” DNA plasmid vector expressing the gene encoding the rat Her2 protein. Vaccines according to the instant disclosure are used as an adjunct treatment for surgery, radiation and/or chemotherapy for dogs and cats with cancers that over express the Her2 antigen, and prolong the post-surgical disease free interval and/or survival time. Also included are therapeutically effective methods of immunization using said vaccines.
Abstract:
The invention relates to alkylsulfide derivatives compounds of formula I as hereunder depicted or the enantiomers or veterinarily acceptable salts thereof which are useful for combating or controlling invertebrate pests, in particular arthropod pests and nematodes. The invention also relates to methods for controlling invertebrate pests by using these compounds and to plant propagation material and to agricultural and veterinary compositions comprising said compounds. wherein U, R1, R2, R3U, X, n and p are defined as in the description.
Abstract:
The present invention encompasses recombinant Newcastle Disease Virus-Herpesvirus vaccines or compositions. The invention encompasses recombinant NDV vectors encoding and expressing herpesvirus pathogen, antigens, proteins, epitopes or immunogens. Such vaccines or compositions can be used to protect animals against disease.
Abstract:
This invention relates to processes for the preparation of antiparasitic isoxazoline compounds enriched in an enantiomer using quinine-based chiral phase transfer catalyst. The invention also relates to novel quinine-based phase transfer catalysts and to a toluene solvent form of the isoxazoline compound of the invention.
Abstract:
A method of treating the skin or hair on a dog containing an effective amount of an ectoparasiticide previously applied to the skin or hair, comprising applying a quantity of a cleansing composition directly to the skin or hair, wherein the treatment does not result in reducing the efficacy of the ectoparasiticide against adult fleas (C. felis) or adult ticks (R. sanguineus) below 90% efficacy for at least a month after application of the ectoparasiticide; wherein the cleansing composition comprises about 1-3% glycerin; about 2-4% silicone copolyol esters, water and is essentially free of surfactant.
Abstract:
The present invention encompasses FMDV vaccines or compositions. The invention encompasses recombinant vectors encoding and expressing FMDV antigens, epitopes or immunogens which can be used to protect animals, in particular ovines, bovines, caprines, or swines, against FMDV.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a liquid applicator, for administering liquids, including vaccines, to animals. In particular, the applicator is useful for delivering liquids to mouths of animals.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel anthelmintic compounds of formula (I) below: wherein Y and Z are independently a bicyclic carbocyclic or a bicyclic heterocyclic group, or one of Y or Z is a bicyclic carbocyclic or a bicyclic heterocyclic group and the other of Y or Z is alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, heterocyclyl or heteroaryl, and variables X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, X7 and X8 are as defined herein. The invention also provides for veterinary compositions comprising the anthelmintic compounds of the invention, and their uses for the treatment and prevention of parasitic infections in animals.
Abstract:
