term immunity against anaplasmosis infections by releasing vaccine
contents over an extended period.
This new single-dose vaccine, which is administered in the back of
the ear, has been shown to protect against clinical anaplasmosis for up
to two years and could potentially help make anaplasmosis control
more accessible and convenient to livestock producers, Curtis says.
“The concept of providing cattle with a single vaccine implant that
could potentially provide lifelong protection against an economically
devastating disease, such as bovine anaplasmosis, could revolutionize
livestock production,” Coetzee said.
Iowa State University currently holds a patent for the implant
platform and the K-State/Manhattan Innovation Center is exploring
a partnership with Iowa State to further develop this technology.
The first step to a commercially available product would include
finding a commercial partner to seek approval from the U.S.
Department of Agriculture.
In addition to Curtis and Coetzee, K-State researchers involved
with the project include Miriam Martin, Brandt Skinner, Shawnee
Montgomery, Tippawan Anantatat, Kathryn E. Reif, Majid Jaberi-
Douraki, Emily J. Reppert and Michael Kleinhenz. Researchers from
Iowa State include Sean Kelly, Balaji Narasimhan and Douglas Jones.
This project was supported in part by the Iowa Livestock Health
Advisory Council and the faculty start-up funding provided by Kansas
State University.
The study, “Rapid Communication: Development of a subcutaneous
ear implant to deliver an anaplasmosis vaccine to dairy steers,” was
published in the Journal of Animal Science.
