An Eimeria tenella microneme recombinant gene (EtMIC2) and encoded protein were
evaluated as potential vaccines against avian coccidiosis. In ovo inoculation with the EtMIC2 …

Avian coccidiosis is an intestinal disease caused by protozoa of the genus Eimeria. To
investigate the potential of recombinant protein vaccines to control coccidiosis, we cloned 2 …

Eimeria infection in poultry is of significant economic interest worldwide. Development of a
cost-effective sub-unit vaccine that provides cross-protection may help reduce loss in poultry …

Coccidiosis is caused by several distinct intestinal protozoa of Eimeria sp., and is
responsible for intestinal lesions and severe body weight loss in chickens. To develop a …

Background Poultry coccidiosis is a parasitic enteric disease with a highly negative impact
on chicken production. In-feed chemoprophylaxis remains the primary method of control, but …

Immunity to Eimeria is species-specific, and chickens with immunity to one species of
Eimeria remain susceptible to other Eimeria species. This presents a major challenge in the …

Coccidiosis is an economically important disease affecting poultry industry and remains one
of the major problems globally. Developing a cost effective sub-unit vaccine may help …

A cloned Eimeria acervulina gene (3-1E) was used to vaccinate chickens in ovo against
coccidiosis, both alone and in combination with genes encoding interleukin (IL)-1, IL-2, IL-6 …

The search for effective vaccines against chicken coccidiosis remains a challenge because
of the complex organisms with multiple life cycle stages of Eimeria. Combination of T-cell …

Avian coccidiosis is mostly caused by mixed infection of several Eimeria species under
natural conditions and immunity to avian coccidiosis is largely dependent on T-cell immune …
