Summary

Steers inoculated with treated virus and oil adjuvant were protected for a 6-month period when exposed to foot-and-mouth disease infection by contact. Steers inoculated with the treated virus and aluminium hydroxide were not protected. Although minimal numbers of animals were used, the results parallel those obtained in swine in experiments where larger numbers of animals were used. Experiments with larger numbers of steers are needed to confirm these findings.
