The present invention discloses a combination of vaccine strains for treating, preventing, relieving or controlling Canine Distemper, Canine Parvovirus Enteritis and Canine Infectious Hepatitis, comprising: Canine Distemper virus vaccine strain with the microorganism deposition accession number CGMCC No. 19397, Canine Parvovirus vaccine strain with the microorganism deposition accession number CGMCC No. 19398 and Canine Infectious Hepatitis virus vaccine strain with the microorganism deposition accession number CGMCC No. 19396. The three vaccine strains of the combination of vaccine strains are low in toxicity and good in immunogenicity. The present invention further discloses a live vaccine composition using the above-mentioned combination of vaccine strains as immunogen. The vaccine composition is safe and effective.

The present invention provides novel nucleotides sequences, protein sequences, immunogenic compositions, vaccines, and methods that relate to making and using new porcine parvovirus 5B (PPV5B) 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.

Various aspects of the invention relate to compositions and methods of analyzing blood plasma, blood serum, and manufacturing pools of plasma-derived products wherein an anionic surfactant is added to an aliquot of the blood plasma, blood serum, or manufacturing pool prior to analysis, and the counterion of the anionic surfactant is not sodium ion. The anionic surfactant may be, for example, lauryl sulfate. The counterion of the anionic surfactant may be, for example, lithium ion.

Novel engineered oncolytic protoparvoviruses are described to be used in cancer therapy. The engineered protoparvoviruses contain at least one deletion in the untranslated region and a silencer sequence that remains stably integrated into the viral genome during extensive virus propagation. The novel viruses can be used for the silencing of relevant cancer-related genes, providing to the virus a new anticancer mechanism of action.

Various aspects of the invention relate to compositions and methods of analyzing blood plasma, blood serum, and manufacturing pools of plasma-derived products wherein an anionic surfactant is added to an aliquot of the blood plasma, blood serum, or manufacturing pool prior to analysis, and the counterion of the anionic surfactant is not sodium ion. The anionic surfactant may be, for example, lauryl sulfate. The counterion of the anionic surfactant may be, for example, lithium ion.

The invention relates to a live attenuated parvovirus for use in the protection of an animal against parvovirus infection, wherein the live attenuated parvovirus is administered to the animal as a single dose and is administered during weeks 2-10 of age of the animal. The invention further relates to vaccines comprising the live attenuated parvovirus as well as methods for their production.

The present invention relates to pharmaceutical products and in particular to pharmaceutical combination products. The invention further relates to uses of such products in medical treatment. Embodiments of the invention have been particularly developed as pharmaceutical combination products of a protoparvovirus and an antiviral benzimidazole derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug of the benzimidazole derivative for use in the treatment of cancer and will be described hereinafter with reference to this application. However, it will be appreciated that the invention is not limited to this particular field of use.
