The present invention relates to an adenoviral vector capable of encoding a virus-like particle (VLP), said VLP displaying an inactive immune-suppressive domain (ISD). The vaccine of the invention shows an improved immune response from either of both of the response pathways initiated by CD4 T cells or CD8 T cells.

A vaccine composition for birds comprising as an active ingredient a structure containing O-antigen derived from Gram-negative bacteria, provided that said structure does not contain a whole cell, and a process for preparing the same are provided. By using a structure containing O-antigen (e.g. lipopolysaccharide) derived from Gram-negative bacteria as an active ingredient in accordance with the present invention, alleviation of inoculation reaction and reduction in an amount of injection are attained as compared to the conventional whole-cells vaccine to thereby allow for the increase in the number of other antigens to be mixed therewith.

The disclosure relates to the technical field of veterinary biological products, and discloses an avian influenza and fowl adenovirus type 4 bi-combined genetic engineering subunit vaccine. An antigen in the vaccine is a fusion antigen; the fusion antigen has a) avian influenza virus HA protein; b) fowl adenovirus fiber2 protein; c) a specific linker peptide located between the avian influenza virus HA protein and the fowl adenovirus fiber2 protein; the amino acid sequence of the specific linker peptide is as shown in SEQ ID NO:2. This vaccine contains the fusion antigen which can induce poultries to produce a high-level specific antibody to protect poultries from avian influenza and fowl adenovirus infection. Meanwhile, the disclosure also discloses a method for preparing the vaccine.

The present invention is based on the surprising discovery that the inclusion of an anionic polymer in the adenovirus formulation enhances long-term stability of the vector composition. An aqueous formulation comprising an adenovirus vector and at least one anionic polymer is provided, together with methods of the preparation of a storage stable adenovirus aqueous formulation.

The invention relates to methods of selectively purifying an adeno-associated virus (AAV) from an aqueous biomass using a flocculent. In embodiments, the flocculent is polydiallyldialkylammonium salt, e.g., polydiallyldimethvlammonium chloride (pDADMAC).

Methods for generating immune responses using adenovirus vectors that allow multiple vaccinations with the same adenovirus vector and vaccinations in individuals with preexisting immunity to adenovirus are provided.
