ABSTRACT:
The invention of novel, effective vaccines againstMycoplasma. bovisfor use in cattle is described. These vaccines demonstrate no undesirable side effects and protect againstM. bovisrelated disease, such as contagious mastitis, respiratory pneumonia, joint infections, keratoconjunctivitis and middle ear infections. The novel vaccines also lessen the effect ofM. bovisinfections on milk production, weight gain and animal health. Methods of diagnosing, characterizing and treatingM. bovisinfections as specific biotypes are also disclosed. Vaccine compositions made in accordance with the invention may be either of the attenuated or inactivated variety. Vaccines may also include antigens from other pathogens so as to provide a protective immunogenic response to diseases other than those caused byM. bovis.
