The present invention is directed to improved methods of Enterovirus inactivation by formaldehyde in presence of tromethamine buffer resulting in maximum recovery of D-antigen. Subsequent adsorption of said sIPV on aluminium hydroxide provides significantly dose reduced sIPV compositions.

Disclosed is a composition comprising at least one non-infectious virus particle for preventing and/or treating a viral infection in a marine mollusc.

The present invention relates to immunogenic compositions comprising RSV F protein, methods for preparing compositions that contain RSV F protein ecto-domain polypeptides, and to certain engineered RSV F proteins and nucleic acids that encode the engineered RSV F proteins. Compositions prepared using the methods can contain RSV F protein ecto-domain polypeptides in a predominant or single desired form and conformation. The invention also relates to methods for inducing an immune response to RSV F.

Embodiments of the present invention provide for novel compositions and methods for making and using a thermally stable human papilloma virus (HPV) formulation or other stabilized multimeric virus formulation. Certain embodiments concern lyophilizing HPV formulations in the presence or absence of adjuvants. Other embodiments concern lypophilizing HPV capsomere vaccines in order to increase stability of an immunogenic composition against HPV infection for storage, delivery and use. In yet other embodiments, a single immunogenic composition can include a thermally stable formulation of multiple virus serotypes.

The present invention provides novel nucleotides sequences, protein sequences, immunogenic compositions, vaccines, and methods that relate to making and using new porcine parvovirus 5A (PPV5A) that infects, inter alia, domestic swine. The compositions and methods provide for the detection of infections by said new virus, monitoring genetic changes in the viral sequences in wild and domestic animals and herds, and making and using novel vaccines for protecting animals from infection by the virus.

The present disclosure relates to hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccines and immunogenic compositions having one or more antigens from at least one virus that causes hand, foot, and mouth disease in humans, and methods of manufacture, formulation, and testing, and uses thereof.

The present disclosure provides a rabies composition comprising IPRV and PIKA adjuvant, and the pharmaceutical use thereof. The present disclosure also discloses a method for prophylaxis or therapeutic treatment of rabies virus infection, the method comprises a step of administering the rabies vaccine composition to a host. The rabies composition is more stable and safe, and is able to induce earlier and higher titers of neutralizing antibody.

Disclosed herein are embodiments of an immunogenic composition for porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, and a method for making the immunogenic composition. Also disclosed is a method for administrating the immunogenic composition to a subject in need thereof. The immunogenic composition comprises PEDV proteins and/or antigens from one or more strains of PEDV, and may additionally comprise proteins and/or antigens from one or more additional porcine pathogens, such as PRRSV. Additionally disclosed in a combination comprising a PEDV immunogenic composition as disclosed herein, and an immunogenic composition or other therapeutic composition directed toward an additional porcine pathogen.

The present invention provides vaccine or immunogenic compositions comprising novel antigens derived from the equine strain of influenza H3N8. These proteins and specific immunogenic domains are effective as primary universal influenza antigens. The disclosed vaccines or immunogenic compositions are highly effective in inducing HA specific antibodies reactive to different influenza viruses, mucosal and systemic immune responses, and cross-protection regardless of influenza virus subtypes. In some embodiments, the vaccine is cross-protective against two or more (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6) subtypes of influenza with or without the use of an adjuvant.

The present invention is drawn to liquid stable poultry vaccines that comprise avian virus. The invention is also drawn to the manufacture of such vaccines methods of vaccinating animal subjects with these vaccines.
