Research Projects in
Operation:
1. Development and evaluation of cell culture adapted vaccine
against fowl pox
2. Characterization of potent protective antigens of Pasteurella multocida
and development of recombinant vaccine against Haemorrhagic septicaemia
3. Serological and molecular characterization of etiological agents of hydro
pericardium syndrome with special reference to development of suitable cell
culture vaccine
Salient Achievements:
1. To
detect the presence of urea in adulterated/ synthetic milk, a strip test has
been developed. The test is sensitive enough to detect urea at a
concentration of 0.1% in milk in only one minute.
2. Immunodiagnostic
tests like ELISA, rider immunoassay (RIA), coagglutination (COAT), counter
current Immunoelectrophoresis (CIE), fluorescent antibody test (FAT) have
been standardized and carried out for the diagnosis of Infectious diseases,
viz. infectious bursal disease, canine parvovirus infection, new castle, rota
virus infection and salmonellosis.
3. A live
attenuated cell culture vaccine against sheep pox was developed using Karnal
strain of sheep pox virus.
4. A Marek’s
disease virus strain isolated locally from an apparently healthy bird was
attenuated in chicken embryo fibroblast cell culture. The virus at its 20th
passage level was used as a vaccine and the protection afforded was
comparable to other available MD vaccines.
5. Salmonella
Toxoid afford 100% protection in mice.
6. Congo red
binding test for detection of pathogenecity of Escherichia coli strains in
poultry developed.
7. Studies based
on serotypes of E.coli and antibiotic sensitivity pattern in colibacillosis
in poultry were determined.
8. Enterotoxin and
four novel cytotoxins of Salmonella were purified and characterized.
