Effectiveness of an experimental subunit ovine Mannheimia haemolytica respiratory vaccine in reducing pneumonia in lambs.

vaccine induced high LtxA and TbpB antibodies, it did not reduce clinical disease in lambs following an experimental challenge study or in a controlled randomized field trial in a commercial sheep operation. Further research is required to identify additional protective antigens for a safe and effective ovine respiratory vaccine to reduce pneumonia losses in commercial sheep flocks.
