Validation of γ-radiation and ultraviolet as a new inactivators for foot and mouth disease virus in comparison with the traditional methods. Vet World 2016; 8:1088-98. [PMID: 27047204 PMCID: PMC4774778 DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2015.1088-1098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2015] [Revised: 08/09/2015] [Accepted: 08/20/2015] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
AIM The present work deals with different methods for foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) inactivation for serotypes O/pan Asia, A/Iran05, and SAT-2/2012 by heat, gamma radiation, and ultraviolet (UV) in comparison with the traditional methods and their effects on the antigenicity of viruses for production of inactivated vaccines. MATERIALS AND METHODS FMDV types O/pan Asia, A/Iran05, and SAT-2/2012 were propagated in baby hamster kidney 21 (BHK21) and titrated then divided into five parts; the first part inactivated with heat, the second part inactivated with gamma radiation, the third part inactivated with UV light, the fourth part inactivated with binary ethylamine, and the last part inactivated with combination of binary ethylamine and formaldehyde (BEI+FA). Evaluate the method of inactivation via inoculation in BHK21, inoculation in suckling baby mice and complement fixation test then formulate vaccine using different methods of inactivation then applying the quality control tests to evaluate each formulated vaccine. RESULTS The effect of heat, gamma radiation, and UV on the ability of replication of FMDV "O/pan Asia, A/Iran05, and SAT-2/2012" was determined through BHK cell line passage. Each of the 9 virus aliquots titer 10(8) TCID50 (3 for each strain) were exposed to 37, 57, and 77°C for 15, 30, and 45 min. Similarly, another 15 aliquots (5 for each strain) contain 1 mm depth of the exposed samples in petri-dish was exposed to UV light (252.7 nm wavelength: One foot distance) for 15, 30, 45, 60, and 65 min. Different doses of gamma radiation (10, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 KGy) were applied in a dose rate 0.551 Gy/s for each strain and repeated 6 times for each dose. FMDV (O/pan Asia, A/Iran05, and SAT-2/2012) were inactivated when exposed to heat ≥57°C for 15 min. The UV inactivation of FMDV (O/pan Asia and SAT-2) was obtained within 60 min and 65 min for type A/Iran05. The ideal dose for inactivation of FMDV (O/pan Asia, A/Iran05, and SAT-2/2012) with gamma radiation were 55-60 and 45 kGy, respectively. Inactivation of FMDV with binary was 20, 24 and 16 hr for O/pan Asia, A/Iran05, and SAT-2/2012, respectively while inactivation by (BEI+FA) was determined after 18, 19 and 11 hr for O/pan-Asia, A/Iran 05, and SAT-2/2012, respectively. The antigenicity of control virus before inactivation was 1/32, it was not changed after inactivation in case of gamma radiation and (BEI+FA) and slightly decrease to 1/16 in case of binary and declined to 1/2, 1/4 in case of heat and UV inactivation, respectively. The immune response induced by inactivated FMD vaccines by gamma radiation and (BEI+FA) lasted to 9 months post-vaccination, while the binary only still up to 8 months post-vaccination but heat and UV-inactivated vaccines were not effective. CONCLUSION Gamma radiation could be considered a good new inactivator inducing the same results of inactivated vaccine by binary with formaldehyde (BEI+FA).

Abstract
Using a panel of new monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), five neutralizing, conformation-dependent sites have been identified on the antigenic variant of swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV) circulating currently. In studies on the antigenic conservation of these sites, the four antigenic/genetic groups of SVDV described showed distinguishable patterns, confirming this classification. By sequencing mAb-resistant mutants, the five sites have been mapped precisely and localized on a three-dimensional model of the SVDV capsid. All were found to be orientated, to a different extent, towards the external surface of the capsid. Three of the five sites, located in VP1, VP2 and VP3, correspond to epitopes identified previously in historic isolates as sites 1, 2a and 3b, respectively. Another site, site IV, which maps to position 258 of VP1, corresponds to an epitope reported recently and is described in this study to be specific for isolates of the most recent antigenic group of SVDV. A fifth site is described for the first time and corresponds to the unique neutralizing site that is common to both SVDV and coxsackie B5 virus; it maps to positions 95 and 98 of VP1, but may also include positions nearby that belong to site 1 on the BC-loop of VP1, suggesting the classification of site Ia. These results may have useful diagnostic and epidemiological applications, since mAbs to the new conserved site Ia provide universal reagents for SVDV detection systems, while the specificity of mAbs to site IV make them unique markers for the most recent strains of SVDV.

Abstract
The first experimental vaccines against foot-and-mouth disease were made in 1925 by Vallee, Carre and Rinjard using formaldehyde inactivation of tongue tissue from cattle infected with the virus. This method was essentially unaltered until the late 1940s when the important experiments by Frenkel in Holland showed that the quantities of virus required for vaccine production could be obtained from fragments of tongue epithelium incubated in vitro following infection with the virus. This major step made possible the comprehensive vaccination programmes which followed in Western Europe and which, in turn, resulted in the elimination of the disease from that part of the world by 1989. This spectacular success has led many to question whether other kinds of vaccine are required to control the disease worldwide. Such reservations ignore the danger to the environment associated with the growth of large amounts of virus. This can never be a zero-risk situation. Consequently, a vaccine which is not based on infectious virus as starting material has many attractions from safety considerations alone. In addition, a vaccine based on more fundamental considerations would not only be more aesthetically satisfying but could possibly provide an understanding at the molecular level of antigenic variation, still a problem in the control of the disease. The advances in our knowledge of the structure of the virus and the fragments which elicit a protective immune response now allow us to envisage a vaccine which does not require infectious virus and which protects against the multiple serotypes of the agent. Since antigenic variation is still a major problem in the control of the disease by vaccination, such a product would have important advantages over the current vaccines.

Abstract
The physico-chemical properties and immunogenicity of experimental vaccines against foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and poliomyelitis, prepared by treatment of the viruses with N-acetylethyleneimine (AEI), formaldehyde or neutral red, have been studied. None of these reagents affects the rate of sedimentation of the particles or their reaction with antibody against the major immunogenic sites. FMD vaccines prepared by inactivation with AEI or neutral red, behaved like the untreated virus, in that they were disrupted on lowering the pH below 7. The RNA of the AEI-inactivated virus was degraded into slowly sedimenting molecules. Unlike AEI-inactivated virus, from which all the RNA could be extracted with phenol-SDS, the recovery from the neutral red inactivated virus was variable and was sometimes as low as 40%; this RNA gave a heterogenous profile in sucrose gradients. The capsid proteins in the AEI preparation migrated in SDS-PAGE to the same positions as those of untreated virus, but in the neutral red preparation there was evidence of cross-linking. In contrast, the formaldehyde-inactivated vaccine was stable below pH 7 and the RNA could not be released by extraction with phenol-SDS at pH 5, because the capsid proteins had become cross-linked and/or linked to the RNA. As with foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), poliovirus which had been inactivated with formaldehyde did not release its RNA on extraction with phenol-SDS and the capsid proteins were also cross-linked. Surprisingly, although AEI cleaved the viral RNA slowly in situ, the virus was no longer infectious after 6 h. Neutral red did not reduce the infectivity of the virus. All of the preparations gave similar levels of neutralizing antibody after a single inoculation. The high levels obtained with the formaldehyde-inactivated vaccines have implications for the processing of fixed particles by the antigen-presenting cells.

Abstract
Two novel formats of ELISA for the detection of antibodies against swine vesicular disease (SVD) virus were developed. One of the tests described is a monoclonal antibody-based competitive ELISA (MAC-ELISA). In this test, specific antibodies in serum are detected due to their ability to compete with a neutralizing monoclonal antibody (MAb). The second is an indirect trapping ELISA which employs isotype-specific MAbs to detect swine IgG or IgM specific for SVD virus. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the MAC-ELISA was studied on 5671 field sera of known origin, enabling the cut-off level to be defined. Using the MAC-ELISA, 100% of sera from infected pigs were found positive, whereas only 0.45% of negative sera gave a false-positive result. A positive correlation between MAC-ELISA and virus neutralizing titres was recorded for pig sera collected sequentially after experimental infections. The results from the isotype-specific ELISA revealed the dynamics of the antibody response to SVD virus in pigs. The first antibodies were detectable as early as 3 days after experimental infection. Up to the 10th day, demonstrable antibodies were exclusively of the IgM class. IgG developed later, between 11 and 14 days postinfection and remained at a plateaux level throughout the whole investigation period. The two tests satisfy different diagnostic requirements: the MAC-ELISA is useful as a screening test, the isotype-specific ELISA has potential application for the determination of stage of infection. Both tests benefit from the use of MAbs in terms of specificity and standardization and have advantages over the virus neutralization test.

Abstract
An antibody against the Escherichia coli-expressed RNA polymerase of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) reacts with the virus in ELISA and radioimmunoprecipitation experiments and with a protein of the disrupted virus particle in an immunoblot analysis. Treatment of the virus with trypsin, which cleaves capsid protein VP1 and a 56-kDa polypeptide present in trace amount in the particles, reduces the level of the reaction in ELISA and radioimmunoprecipitation and eliminates the immunoblot reaction. Electron microscopy showed that only approximately 20% of the virus particles reacted with the anti-polymerase antibody, whereas most reacted with an antibody against the immunodominant G-H loop of the virus. In the presence of ammonium ions, the expressed polymerase degrades the RNA of the virus into molecules sedimenting at approximately 12 S, indicating that it can act as a hydrolytic as well as a polymerizing enzyme. Moreover, the RNA in trypsin-treated virus particles is degraded when incubated at 37 degrees C, suggesting that the cleaved 56-kDa protein still possesses hydrolytic activity. In addition, the anti-polymerase antibody, which inhibits the polymerase activity of the E. coli-expressed protein, also partially inhibits the hydrolytic activity of the previously described endonuclease of the virus particle, suggesting that this enzyme is identical with the polymerase or forms part of it.

Abstract
Foot and mouth disease virus type Asia-1 was inactivated either with formaldehyde or binaryethylenimine (BEI). Inactivated vaccines were prepared incorporating aluminium hydroxide gel or mineral oil as an adjuvant. The antibody response to the adult sheep was studied by ELISA and SN test for a period of 6 months. There was no difference in the antibody response between vaccines inactivated with formaldehyde or BEI. Whereas significant difference in the antibody response was observed between gel and oil vaccines. The high titres of antibody stimulated by oil vaccines persisted longer than those of gel vaccines within the period of study.

Abstract
This chapter reviews the development of some of vaccines and their use in controlling such major diseases as diphtheria, rinderpest, Newcastle disease, smallpox, pertussis, yellow fever, rabies, etc. Park–Williams Number 8 (PW8) strain is used to make diphtherial toxoid for vaccines. As a source of toxin, it is rendered nontoxic by incubation with formalin under alkaline conditions. The product's retention of antigenicity, enabling it to induce antitoxin antibodies, makes it an excellent pediatric vaccine. Vaccine against Rinderpest Virus was developed by Koch in 1897 by administering bile from infected cattle. Animals that survived were permanently immune. Formalin- and chloroform-inactivated vaccines were developed using tissues from the infected animals. For the control of Newcastle disease, a number of attenuated live-virus vaccines have been developed which are widely used to control the disease. The Bl strain, the LaSota strain, and the F strain are used to immunize birds of all ages by different routes, including by addition to drinking water and by spraying. Protection against rabies correlates with SN antibody, which can be assessed by a number of tests. Pasteur's classical vaccine, developed from infected spinal cord tissue dried at room temperature for 3–14 days, was given in a series of 21–28 inoculations beginning with material dried the longest and progressing through material dried for only 3 days.

Abstract
N-Acetylethyleneimine (AEI) was used to inactivate the avirulent Togavirus Semliki Forest virus (A774 strain) grown in chick embryo, Vero, and brain cell cultures. The purity of the virus preparation affected the kinetics of inactivation. The rate of inactivation increased with a rise in temperature from 5 to 40 degrees C and in concentration of AEI from 0.025 to 0.1%. The resultant vaccine was inoculated into adult mice to test its antigenicity and into suckling mice to test for the presence of infective virus. Semliki Forest virus-specific IgG was produced equal to that of mice given live virus, and mice were protected against the lethal SFV L10 strain. No suckling mice died, and the brains of the adult mice showed no pathology.

Abstract
Hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies to pseudorabies virus (PRV) were established. The monoclonal antibodies were characterized with respect to their antigenic specifications and biological activities. Two monoclonal antibodies immunoprecipitated the 50 kDa PRV glycoprotein (gp50) and two immunoprecipitated the 82 kDa glycoprotein (gp82). The monoclonal antibodies were used to analyze the biological roles of these two glycoproteins. One monoclonal antibody directed against each glycoprotein did not require complement for in vitro viral neutralization while the other monoclonal antibody directed against the glycoprotein required complement for neutralization. The monoclonal antibodies against gp50 were shown to be directed against different epitopes within the glycoprotein. In contrast, the monoclonal antibodies against gp82 were shown to be directed against the same antigenic site on the glycoprotein. In vivo passive immunity studies in mice showed that monoclonal antibodies directed against either gp50 or gp82 could be protective.

Abstract
The inactivation of foot-and-mouth disease virus by formaldehyde was studied under different conditions, both as free virus and (as in routine vaccine production) after adsorption of the virus to aluminium hydroxide gel (alhydrogel). In the latter case infectivity was monitored after elution of the virus from the gel by isopycnic ultracentrifugation of the virus-alhydrogel mixture in CsCl. By this method good virus recoveries were obtained. Adsorption of the virus to alhydrogel (without formaldehyde) did not reduce infectivity significantly. Both adsorbed and non-absorbed virus lost infectivity at a rate of about one log10 per day (at pH 8.5, 25 degrees C--no formaldehyde). Kinetics of formaldehyde inactivation of adsorbed and non-adsorbed virus were also identical, with a fast reduction in the initial phase (in case of O1 and A10-virus approximately one log10/hour). After this initial phase inactivation became linear and rather slow (for O1 and A10-virus 0.2 log10/hour). No "tailing-off" was observed. Under standard conditions (0.04 per cent formaldehyde, pH 8.5, 25 degrees C) CD-virus was inactivated approximately 1.5 times faster than O1 and A10-virus. At 4 degrees C the inactivation of the three strains continued at about one log10/day. Increased lactalbumin hydrolysate concentrations reduced the inactivation rate, especially at the formaldehyde concentration of 0.02 per cent, which was originally applied. Quaternary amines like Tris strongly inhibited formaldehyde activity. These findings might explain some data of others who observed "tailing off". Analysis of formaldehyde inactivated antigen by SDS-PAGE and electrofocusing showed that extensive cross-linking occurs especially of VP1, probably with other virus proteins but also with non-virus proteins from the medium. VP2 and VP3 are less affected. Cross-linking was enhanced when the virus had been adsorbed to alhydrogel during inactivation. Progressive cross-linking was observed during storage of the vaccine at 4 degrees C, which also indicated that inactivation continued at this temperature. These data show that formaldehyde inactivated adsorbate vaccines can be safe.

Abstract
Major contributions towards the development of an absolutely safe FMDV vaccine are evident. With the identification of VP1 as the immunogenic protein, it is possible to manufacture a subunit vaccine via biotechnology. DNA sequences encoding the VP1 protein can be introduced into a bacterium with ease; under the appropriate conditions, large amounts of VP1 can be produced in a short time. The accumulation of amino acid sequences generated by recombinant DNA techniques allows identification of antigenic domains, which are the basis of variability among serotype and subtype viruses. As a result, vaccine production by chemical synthesis of short peptides corresponding to the antigenic determinants is greatly facilitated. At present, results from experimental vaccines employing genetically engineered or chemically synthesized VP1 antigens against homologous virus infection are encouraging. The current approach of preparing vaccine is to utilize the antigenic specificity of the virus. Since FMDV undergoes antigenic drift, variants not neutralized by type-specific serum will arise. An alternative approach is to prepare vaccines based on antigenic sites shared among all serotype and subtype viruses.

Abstract
Conditions that contribute to efficient innocuity testing of formaldehyde (FA)-inactivated alhydrogel vaccines were investigated. Under our conditions good yields of 146S antigen were obtained if the antigen was eluted by potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and concentrated by ultrafiltration. Non-inactivated virus added to the vaccine and adsorbed overnight could be recovered if residual FA was removed from the vaccine by washing the gel thoroughly with Frenkel culture medium before the addition of the virus. It was shown that the presence of high concentrations of inactivated virus in the concentrated eluate could prevent the detection of small amounts infectious virus in intradermolingual tests in cattle. This interference phenomenon was not found if (more susceptible) monolayers of foetal calf thyroid cells were used for the detection of virus. Intensive pre-washing of the gel with Frenkel culture medium, elution with potassium phosphate, concentration by ultrafiltration and the use of thyroid cells for the final detection of surviving virus is therefore advised for safety testing.

Abstract
Methods for the testing of preparations of aziridine-inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus for the absence of infective particles were studied. The system used for virus production, suspension cultures of baby hamster kidney cells, proved to be the most sensitive detection system for traces of infective virus as long as the 146S antigen concentration was below 1 microgram per 10(6) cells. Above this level interference may mask the presence of non-inactivated virus. Thus in a 1-1 suspension culture 1 mg of inactivated 146S antigen equivalent to at least 300 doses of vaccine could be tested. The kinetics of inactivation may be studied by the agar-cell suspension plaque assay which is nearly equal in sensitivity to the method described above. Antigen concentrations at which interference occurred were also estimated for this type of assay. Inactivation of polyethylene glycol-concentrated virus showed 'tailing-off' and such virus preparations should not be used in vaccine production. The data are discussed with reference to the recommendations for innocuity testing in the European Pharmacopoeia.

Abstract
Experiments are described which show that a member of the picornaviridae (FMD virus Asia I Iran 1/73) attaches to BHK suspension cells in a manner which precludes a requirement for virus specific receptors on the cell plasma membrane. While it may be possible to demonstrate the apparent saturation of the cell surface with multiple doses of virus, an increase of the concentration of the dosing suspension results in more virus attachment. Indeed, it was found that with the amounts of virus which were made available it was not possible to saturate the ability of the cell to take up virus particles. This, coupled with the demonstration that the uptake of virus followed the pattern of uptake of gas molecules on to a solid surface (Freundlich adsorption isotherm), drew us to the conclusion that, in contrast to other reported systems with similar viruses and cells, the uptake of the FMD virus we used to BHK suspension cells did not require virus specific cell receptor sites.

Abstract
Virus produced in the first four days after infection of a BHK21 culture was shown to differ from that produced later in the infection. The early virus caused large plaques in IB-RS-2 cell sheets, had a slow cytopathic effect in BHK21 cultures and showed a high virulence for suckling mice. In contrast, the late virus caused small plaques, was rapid in its cytopathic effect and was of low virulence for mice. Comparison between one clone each of the early and late virus showed that no change in immunogenic specificity had taken place, but that charge changes had occurred both in VP3 and in the large trypsin-resistant fragment of VP1. The early, large plaquing clone gave rise spontaneously to small plaquing virus during the destructive phase of a single passage in BHK21 cultures. Conversely, the late, small plaquing clone gave rise to large plaquing virus after a single passage in mice. Each new virus was cloned and it was shown that they differed in VP1. This indicated that missense mutations in the genome coding for the trypsin resistant fragment of VP1 were responsible for the biological changes observed.

Abstract
Experiments are described for the evaluation of the single radial haemolysis (SRH) technique applied to FMD virus, using a method involving the coupling of either antigen or antibody to sheep erythrocytes. The antigen coupling method detected specific antibody but the technique was found to be impractical as it gave reproducible results only with purified virions. However, the antibody coupling technique gave clear zones of lysis using tissue culture harvest virus as well as purified virus, and was also shown to be type specific for detecting antigen. A comparison of the SRH test with the single radial immunodiffusion (SRID) and complement fixation (CF) tests indicated that the SRH was a more sensitive test for assaying FMD antigen than either the SRID or CF tests. Although the SRH and SRID test results correlated well, those obtained in the SRH and CF tests did not. The test was not found to be superior to the CF test in assessing the quality of antigen since, like the CF test, it reacted both with the immunizing 140S antigen and the non-immunogenic 12S protein subunits.

Abstract
Three strains of foot-and-mouth disease virus were shown to contain significant amounts of naturally occurring 75S, empty particles as well as the infectious, 140S full particles. One of these strains--A Pando (1970)--was studied in detail. The empty particles from this virus strain were shown to have an observed sedimentation coefficient of 67S in 0.04 M phosphate buffer; they were labile in SDS, non-infectious and probably RNA-free and, on heating, they broke down to 12S subunits as did the 140S particles. The empty particles differed from the full particles in their polypeptide composition since they contained VP0, but there was no evidence for a diminished content of VP4. The 75S particles were shown to be present in significant amounts and to be stable to AEI inactivation. At 4 degrees C they were stable for at least two years. In guinea pigs they were as immunogenic as the 140S particles. The antisera raised against the 75S particles had the same serological specificity in neutralization tests as sera prepared against the 140S particle. It was concluded that the 75S particles from the A Pando (1970) strain of FMD virus may provide as important a contribution as 140S particles to the immunogenicity of inactivated vaccines prepared from this virus strain.

Abstract
The results of experiments to investigate antibody to 'virus infection associated' (VIA) antigen in cattle repeatedly vaccinated with formalin- or acetylethyleneimine- (AEI) inactivated foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines under laboratory conditions are reported. Results are also presented from some vaccinated animals subsequently exposed to FMD infection. Antibody against VIA was not detected before and after the first vaccination with formalin or AEI-inactivated vaccine but did develop in all animals after the second formalin vaccination and persisted throughout the experiment. After the second AEI vaccination, 4 of 12 animals developed antibody which persisted for at least 37 days. This transient response in some cattle was repeated after successive vaccinations but, in general, more animals responded as the number of vaccinations increased. After exposure to infection a transient VIA antibody response was occasionally observed in immune AEI-vaccinated animals. Some immune repeatedly AEI-vaccinated cattle did not develop detectable VIA antibody after challenge despite the persistence of virus in oesophageal-pharyngeal (O/P) fluid. The presence of antibody to VIA antigen is not conclusive proof that vaccinated animals have been exposed to infection and field data must be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
Two-dimensional quantal microneutralization tests on foot-and-mouth disease viruses, in which neutralizing antibody activity was titrated against a serial range of virus doses, demonstrated a variety of dose-response curves some of which were rectilinear, others clearly curvilinear. Moreover, in the case of the non-linear responses obtained with some antisera, the shape of the curve was such that antibody titres recorded with doses of virus ranging from 10(3)-10(5) TCD50 were closely similar. Studies were carried out on the effect of varying the conditions of the test on the shape of the dose-response curve: significant differences were obtained after treatment of the antiserum-virus mixtures with anti-species globulin, and when the test was assayed in cells of differing susceptibility to infection.

Abstract
Four pigs were inoculated subcutaneously with a detergent (triton X 100) split hog cholera virus in Freund’s incomplete adjuvant. Four other pigs were in the same way inoculated with a detergent split bovine viral diarrhoea virus, also in Freund’s incomplete adjuvant. In the experiment were used 3 control pigs. The vaccinations were repeated after 3 weeks. All pigs were challenged with highly virulent hog cholera virus (Tübingen) 12 weeks after primary inoculations. Signs of hog cholera were only noted in the control pigs. This introductory experiment was succeeded by a larger experiment with subcutaneous inoculations of: 10 pigs with detergent split hog cholera virus in Freund’s incomplete adjuvant, 10 pigs with detergent split hog cholera virus in a saponin (Quil A) solution, 10 pigs with detergent split bovine viral diarrhoea virus in Freund’s incomplete adjuvant, 10 pigs with detergent split bovine viral diarrhoea virus in the Quil A solution plus 5 control pigs. The vaccinations were repeated after 3 weeks, and finally all pigs were challenged 9 weeks later with the highly virulent hog cholera virus strain. With the exception of 1 animal which died accidentally, all animals survived in the groups inoculated with the Quil A vaccines and in the group inoculated with the detergent split hog cholera virus/oil adjuvant vaccine. In the group inoculated with the detergent split bovine viral diarrhoea virus/oil adjuvant vaccine, some of the pigs died of hog cholera.

Abstract
The presence of either thiosulphate-neutralized or free AEI was shown to degrade inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus Type O (Hong Kong) antigen during storage at 4 degrees C. Deterioration was evident after 20 weeks of storage and little antigen remained at 36 weeks. Optimum stability was obtained by removing the residual inactivant immediately after inactivation.

Abstract
Foot-and-mouth disease virus was inactivated with binary ethylenimine formed apart from or directly in the virus suspension by the cyclization of 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide or 2-chloroethylamine hydrochloride under alkaline conditions. The inactivation rates with binary ethylenimine prepared apart from the virus suspension in dilute sodium hydroxide with either 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide or 2-chlorethylamine hydrochloride were higher than with pure ethylenimine. When binary ethylenime was prepared directly in the virus suspension only 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide gave acceptable inactivation rates. The reduced inactivation rates for binary ethylenimine directly prepared in the virus suspension are due to the different cyclization rates of 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide and 2-chloroethylamine hydrochloride and to the interference of bicarbonate in the cyclization reaction. The complement fixing antigen of foot-and-mouth disease virus was not affected by binary ethylenimine inactivation. Vaccines prepared with foot-and-mouth disease virus inactivated by binary ethylenimine were comparable in their immunogenicity to vaccines prepared with ethylenimine or N-acetylethylenimine used as inactivants. Application of binary ethylenimine in the preparation of foot-and-mouth disease vaccines considerably reduces the potential danger associated with handling pure ethylenimine and other aziridines.

Abstract
Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) was inactivated by ethylenimine (EI) at three concentrations and two temperatures. Comparison of inactivation kinetics and the antigenic and immunogenic potency of EI and N-acetylethylenimine (AEI)-inactivated FMDV indicates that EI has nearly optimal characteristics as an inactivant for FMDV vaccine preparation. Although AEI-inactivated FMDV has proved to be a potent specific immunogen, an equivalent percentage of EI inactivated FMDV at substantially faster rates and produced an equally potent immunogen. In addition, EI inactivated FMDV at rates that were essentially linear throughout the loss of nearly all measurable infectivity.

Abstract
Quantitative antigen dose-neutralizing antibody response curves were established in guinea pigs for purified foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), type A, strain 119, inactivated for 48 hr with N-acetylethyleneimine (AEI). Inactivation of FMDV by 0.05% AEI at 25 C occurred without virus degradation and followed first-order kinetics over a 10(8)-fold decrease in plaque-forming units (PFU) extrapolating to 10(-5) PFU/ml at 48 hr. The AEI-treated virus was administered in doses ranging from 10 ng to 2.62 mg, alone or emulsified in oil adjuvant. Sigmoidal dose-response curves were obtained with 160 ng as the minimum effective dose. The maximum effective dose was 163 mug and 2.62 mg or more at 6 and 28 through 84 days postinoculation, respectively. Oil adjuvant had little effect at 6 days postinoculation, but its use markedly increased the amount of neutralizing antibody obtained at the later testing periods.

Abstract
Three antigenic variants of foot-and-mouth disease virus, type A, strain 119, were demonstrated in Ouchterlony analyses utilizing serum collected from guinea pigs 7 days postinfection (DPI). Such antisera contain antibodies of the 19S class. Guinea pig antisera that contained antibodies of the 7S class were unable to distinguish between the antigenic variants. Similarly, 19S antibody was able to demonstrate antigenic differences in trypsin- and chymotrypsin-treated viruses that were not detected by 7S antibody-containing antisera. One of the antigenic variants of virus is apparently the wild type and is tentatively considered to have two antigenic determinant groupings termed the a- and b-sites (140S-ab). The 140S-ab variant was the sole or predominant antigenic type produced in guinea pigs and in large plaque-forming- and tissue culture-low passage sources of the virus. Another antigenic variant appears to possess only the b-site (140S-b) and was the major constituent in tissue culture-high passage virus preparations. The third variant, a small plaque former, was also devoid of the a-site and contains an antigenic determinant that is related to, but not identical with, the b-site. This variant appears to be a minor constituent of tissue culture-high passage virus. 7-DPI serum could be absorbed with a suitable concentration of tissue culture-high passage virus to remove antibody reactive with the b-determinant site. This absorbed serum still precipitated 140S-ab virus by virtue of still containing antibody reactive with the a-determinant site; however, the neutralizing activity was eliminated. This suggests that the b-site is critical with respect to neutralization while the a-site is noncritical.
