Evaluación De La Respuesta Inmune De Vacunas Oleosas Formuladas Con Clostridium Chauvoei Cultivado En Medios A Base De Peptonas Vegetales, Fabian Bedoya Cruz Jan 2006

Evaluación De La Respuesta Inmune De Vacunas Oleosas Formuladas Con Clostridium Chauvoei Cultivado En Medios A Base De Peptonas Vegetales, Fabian Bedoya Cruz

Medicina Veterinaria

Con este proyecto se utilizaron peptonas Vegetales como alternativa profiláctica a la vacuna oleosa tradicional en peptona animal. Se comprobó la eficacia de los medios de cultivo en la primera etapa del proyecto, para esto se trabajó con Clostridium chauvoei cepa Vecol, ya que es una bacteria ampliamente reconocida. En la segunda etapa se realizaron vacunas oleosas con el Clostridium cultivado en este medio con el objetivo de demostrar la capacidad inmune de estas vacunas usando peptonas vegetales y su disminución de riesgo de la encefalopatía espongiforme bovina por el uso de derivados proteicos vacunos.
