Chick embryo cell culture is more cost-effective compared to other traditional methods, which is one of the other reasons for the accelerating demand for these vaccines. This reason is making chick embryo cell rabies vaccine a more accessible and affordable option, especially in resource-limited reg...
In view of the current suboptimal vaccination of wildlife against pathogens such as rabies, there is real and long-felt need for an adjuvanted vaccine bait that can be widely distributed at reduced cost and increased efficacy. An ideal adjuvanted bait should 1) be safe, inexpensive and easy to...
