151: Vaccination against bovine papillomavirus in donkeys affected by sarcoids.
The equine sarcoid is a skin tumour of horses, donkeys and mules (equids). It is the most common equine tumour and affects equids worldwide. It is now accepted that bovine papillomavirus (BPV), a virus that causes warts in cattle, infects equids and contributes to the induction of sarcoids. This project aims at the induction of sarcoid regression by vaccinating affected donkeys against BPV.
