Immunization with recombinant fusion of LTB and linear epitope (40–62) of epsilon toxin elicits protective immune response against the epsilon toxin of Clostridium perfringens type D

Abstract Epsilon toxin (Etx) produced by Clostridium perfringens types B and D, a major causative agent of enterotoxaemia causes significant economic losses to animal industry. Conventional vaccines against these pathogens generally employ formalin-inactivated culture supernatants. However, immuniza...
