Abstract

Abstract The present invention provides a vaccine which is protective against avian polyomavirus infection in a bird which is classified as being a member of the Psittaciformes order which comprises an immunogenic amount of a modified live avian polyomavirus in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Methods are also provided for preventing avian polyomavirus infection in a bird, or in several different species of birds, classified as being a member of the Psittaciformes order, comprising administering a vaccine comprising an immunogenic amount of a modified live avian polyomavirus and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. A preferred embodiment provides a modified live avian polyomavirus vaccine for prevention of wild-type infection in a Budgerigar, lovebird or Cockatiel.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 63 words
A vaccine which is protective against avian polyomavirus infection in a bird which is classified as being a member of the Psittaciformes order, comprising an immunogenic amount of a modified live avian polyomavirus, wherein the immunogenic amount of the modified live avian polyomavirus corresponds to a titer of between 10 2 TCID 50 and 10 7 TCID 50 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 63 words
A vaccine which is protective against avian polyomavirus infection in a bird which is classified as being a member of the Psittaciformes order, comprising an immunogenic amount of a modified live avian polyomavirus, wherein the immunogenic amount of the modified live avian polyomavirus corresponds to a titer of between 10 2 TCID 50 and 10 7 TCID 50 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
The vaccine of claim 1, wherein the immunogenic amount of the modified live avian polyomavirus corresponds to a titer of about 10 4 TCID 50 for the avian polyomavirus.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
The vaccine of claim 1, wherein the bird is a Budgerigar.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 11 words
The vaccine of claim 1, wherein the bird is a Cockatiel.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The vaccine of claim 1, wherein the bird is a lovebird.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 43 words
A method of preventing avian polyomavirus infection in a bird which is classified as being a member of the Psittaciformes order, comprising administering to the bird a vaccine comprising an immunogenic amount of a modified live avian polyomavirus and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 43 words
A method of preventing avian polyomavirus infection in a bird which is classified as being a member of the Psittaciformes order, comprising administering to the bird a vaccine comprising an immunogenic amount of a modified live avian polyomavirus and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 34 words
