Veterinary vaccines are gaining importance with the rising prevalence of various zoonotic disease around the globe

 

Veterinary vaccines have been developed over many years and are widely accepted as the safest and most economical way of controlling viral diseases affecting animals. Up to now, the main types of veterinary vaccines used on animals include rotavirus, meningococcal meningitis, rabies, distemper, and hepatitis. In recent years, a new category of animal vaccines has emerged - vaccines against non-life-threatening diseases that can be used on non-allergic animals. These include parainfluenza, adenoviruses, and enteroviruses. The introduction of these new vaccines is designed to increase the longevity of pets and to protect them against serious diseases. However, the introduction of new and improved vaccines still needs to be accompanied by proper diagnosis, administration, and management.


 

The use of veterinary vaccines is done mainly using bactericides and chemical disinfectants. The use of chemical disinfectants is essential, as non-chemical methods have not proven effective in the fight against infectious agents. Today, various substances, including adjuvants, are being used as alternatives to chemical disinfectants. Adjuvants are substances that neutralize micro-organisms before vaccination. They also prevent the immune system from having an allergic reaction to the vaccine substance.

There are many factors responsible for causing pathogenicity. Vets determine the pathogenicity of microorganisms by performing a number of tests like real-time polymerase chain reactions (RTCRs), expression in cell-free culture, and genetic analysis. These tests determine which pathogen is causing the problem and the extent to which it is capable of spreading.

Animal vaccines are usually protected with adjuvants. Sometimes, there are concerns about their safety. To overcome these challenges, the vaccines are introduced in a balanced way. The administration of adequate quantities of the antigens and the adjuvants are therefore a key factor in ensuring the success of the introduction of the veterinary vaccines.
