Improved vaccine to combat anthrax
CHENNAI: A team of researchers from the Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University has successfully produced an improved vaccine for combating anthrax attack on cattle. Vice-Chancellor P. Thangaraju said the improved vaccine, based on montanide, would be animal-friendly. The glycerine-based vaccine used on cattle earlier, at times resulted in side effects. It would also cost less than the glycerine-based vaccine.
