Methods to control infectious diseases in livestock are growing in importance. As the size of the average farm increases - for poultry, dairy and beef cattle, swine, and fish - the risk of rapid spread of infectious diseases increases as well. This increases the need for alternative methods of control of infectious agents. Improvements in specific immunogens, adjuvants, and delivery systems are needed to meet the demand for vaccines to ensure a healthy and safe meat supply. This article explores the challenges, trends, and recent advances in the control of infectious diseases through the use of biologics.
控制家畜传染病的方法正变得越来越重要。随着平均农场规模的扩大——家禽、奶牛、肉牛、猪和鱼类养殖均是如此——传染病迅速传播的风险也在增加。这就增加了对控制传染源的替代方法的需求。需要改进特定免疫原、佐剂和递送系统，以满足对疫苗的需求，确保肉类供应健康安全。本文探讨了通过使用生物制品控制传染病方面的挑战、趋势和最新进展。
