SVVU transfers technology to Hyderabad-based firm for commercial production
The much-awaited vaccine for the foot rot disease found in goats pan-India may become a reality by the monsoon of 2022. Sri Venkateswara Veterinary University (SVVU) in Tirupati has made strides by developing India’s first-ever vaccine for the disease, and has transferred the technology to the Hyderabad-based Indian Immunologicals Limited (ILL), which is in the process of securing the mandatory licence from various agencies. After the signing of an agreement in December last by university Registrar T. Madhava Rao and IIL Managing Director Anand Kumar, in the presence of Vice-Chancellor V. Padmanabha Reddy, the foot rot bacterial strains ‘A, B, and I’ were handed over to the company for taking up culturing in order to facilitate commercial production.
