VACCINE TO CONTROL THE VIRAL INFECTION OF FISH

Subunit vaccines and their use for immunizing fish against infection by viruses are disclosed. In particular, plasmid pG8 is constructed by joining, with the plasmid pUC8, DNA which encodes the glycoprotein of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV). pG8 is inserted in E. coli, whereby pure v...

Summary:Subunit vaccines and their use for immunizing fish against infection by viruses are disclosed. In particular, plasmid pG8 is constructed by joining, with the plasmid pUC8, DNA which encodes the glycoprotein of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV). pG8 is inserted in E. coli, whereby pure viral antigen is produced to provide a vaccine for the control of IHNV.
