Abstract excerpt

Heartwater (cowdriosis) is a disease of ruminants caused by a rickettsial pathogen Ehrlichia ruminantium and transmitted by ticks of the genus Amblyomma. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the protective efficacies of inactivated and attenuated vaccines to protect sheep against heartwater in The Gambia. An inactivated vaccine, prepared from E. ruminantium (Gardel stock), and a live attenuated vaccine from...
