Which is it - Ectoparasite or Exoparasite? ⏲️ tick tick tick tick tick... It turns out, they're both acceptable names for parasites that live OUTside the body. This year, we began spreading the word about our Tick Vaccine for #cattle and the response has been extraordinary! Of course, the idea of controlling these disease-spreading, health-harming parasites is one that's needed in the #animalhealth industry! But we've also heard the question, "How on earth does a tick vaccine work?!" If you haven't heard a talk given by our own Alan Young or met with our cattle team of Michael Ringgenberg, Haley Nichols, Samantha Robinson, Dr. Brian Huseman, Gary Anderson DVM, MS, PhD or Robert "Bob" Gentry, DVM, the following link will take you to a good primer on the subject. https://lnkd.in/guJmhCCv Thankfully, cattle producers in the northern part of the U.S. will soon receive a reprieve ❄️ from tick-born issues. But for the rest who live in warmer climates, the tick-tick-tick of ectoparasitic disease continues... Btw: Parasites that live INside the body are called "Endoparasites." And Medgene uses the term, "Ectoparasite." UPDATE Oct 2, 2024: Our own Mike Ringgenberg commented that ticks CAN be a problem even in the colder climates above Kansas. And if they can, they should be stopped. Thank you, Mike! #veterinarian #vaccines #ticks #innovation

Old friends and new friends - it's been a great day @ AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF BOVINE PRACTITIONERS (AABP) in Columbus! Dr Alan Young presented on our #bioinformatics technology (we call it Spice™) and how we're leveraging it to address #H5N1, Bovine Coronavirus, and vector-born illness in our tick vaccines. Tomorrow's our last day – if you didn't get your chance to meet Dr. Young, Samantha Robinson, Michael Ringgenberg, Dr. Bob Gentry, or McKenzie Kepner, we'd sure hate to wait until the next event to talk about #animalhealth — we'll be ready for you at booth #410! And to the host of #veterinarystudents that wanted to learn more about the future of vaccine tech, judging by your passion and curiosity, the "new day for animal health care" looks very bright. #veterinarian #vaccines

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE South Dakota Company Responds to USDA Center for Veterinary Biologics Notice on H5N1 Vaccine Production Medgene to test its rapid-response vaccine technology in dairy cattle study BROOKINGS, SD — Animal health vaccine manufacturer Medgene has responded to notice from the USDA Center for Veterinary Biologics (CVB) on testing of vaccines to address H5N1 incidence in dairy cattle. The CVB Notice, 24-13*, now allows for vaccine studies to be conducted outside of containment facilities. The new notice has potential to accelerate agency licensure of H5N1 vaccines in dairy cows. “This is great news for us, for the CVB and more importantly, the dairy industry,” stated Chief Operating Officer Tom Halbur. “Our technology is founded on being able to respond to disease challenges, faster. Our protocol satisfies the stated requirements and we’re looking forward to doing our part in supporting both the necessary regulatory policies and the needs of the dairy industry.” In 2018, the USDA created a regulatory pathway for animal health companies to address critical disease challenges through vaccination. Medgene’s proprietary model of production was developed to take advantage of modern advances in vaccine science. The category of vaccines created under USDA’s regulatory pathway is called “prescription platform.” The expected result of Medgene’s development work will be conditional or full licensure by the CVB to produce and distribute an #H5N1vaccine that has been proven safe and effective in dairy cattle. Medgene’s prescription platform technology requires that veterinarians are involved in every critical step, including prescribing and supervising the use of the #H5N1 vaccine. ABOUT MEDGENE Medgene is an American animal health company headquartered in Brookings, South Dakota. Medgene received the first USDA license to produce Platform Vaccines for the cattle industry, allowing veterinarians to safely respond to diseases faster and more efficiently. Medgene’s prescription platform vaccine technology is also licensed for use in 🐖, 🐄 , 🐇 and 🦌. Medgene’s prescription platform system ensures that all the ingredients that go into our vaccines are animal origin free. #animalhealth #veterinarian #vaccine #swine #cattle #rhdv
