The Immunology of the Domestic Ruminants: Cattle, Sheep, and Goats is a comprehensive examination of the biology of the domestic bovine immune systems. It discusses the normal functioning of the immune system in addition to its roles in resistance to infectious and parasitic diseases, as well as other pathological conditions such as chronic inflammatory and immunodeficiency diseases, making use of new data from the bovine genome project as well as any significant breed differences. Encompassing both innate and adaptive immunity, the book systematically covers both the basic and applied aspects…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
The Immunology of the Domestic Ruminants: Cattle, Sheep, and Goats is a comprehensive examination of the biology of the domestic bovine immune systems. It discusses the normal functioning of the immune system in addition to its roles in resistance to infectious and parasitic diseases, as well as other pathological conditions such as chronic inflammatory and immunodeficiency diseases, making use of new data from the bovine genome project as well as any significant breed differences. Encompassing both innate and adaptive immunity, the book systematically covers both the basic and applied aspects of bovine immunology. The immunology of the major bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases of cattle are described and explained. It also thoroughly reviews bovine vaccines as well as the critical role nutrition plays on the health of the ruminant immune system. Professionals in large animal research and practice will appreciate complete information on all aspects of domestic cattle, sheep and goat immunology in one essential resource.
