Abstract

Novel vaccines for feline viral rhinotracheitis are prepared by psoralen inactivation of live Feline Herpesvirus I by exposure to ultraviolet radiation in the presence of an inactivating furocoumarin. The resulting inactivated viruses are suitable as the immunogenic substances in vaccines, which vaccines are useful for inoculation of hosts susceptible to feline virus rhinotracheitis.
