Advances in Veterinary Science and Comparative Medicine, Volume 33: Vaccine Biotechnology presents advances in the field of vaccinology and approaches in the development of vaccines. This book discusses the developments in vaccinology in a comparative way, examining the successes and failures in human and veterinary medicine for the overall benefit of infectious disease control. The diverse technologies contributing to the improvement of vaccines are also covered, including the role of structural analysis, molecular anatomy, nature of antigenic epitopes, and surfaces of infectious organisms. This publication likewise considers the improvements in safety, efficacy, stability, simplicity of production, and cost in the applications of recombinant-DNA technology, which would mean wider availability and use of vaccines in the future. This volume is valuable to medical, biomedical, and veterinary scientists.
