An innovative approach that combines multiple copies of the structural components (called epitopes) of the viruses that generate protective immunity in a single molecular platform.

A virus DNA sequence that, if removed, makes the FMD virus harmless to animals, but still allows it to grow in cell culture.

The new vaccine is also enclosed in biodegradable nanoparticles, which improves its efficacy and its absorption by a pig's immune system.

The new cells detect the FMD virus in field samples that come directly from naturally infected animals faster than existing cell lines currently used for diagnostics.

On March 19, APHIS donated the vaccines based on a request for assistance from the Guatemalan Chief Veterinary Officer, Dr. Humberto Maldonado, to help Guatemala control the spread of CSF there.

The vaccine is all synthetic, made up of tiny protein shells designed to trigger optimum immune response.
