Abstract

A novel vaccine for immunizing animals against Pasteurella haemolytica infection is disclosed. The vaccine is composed of whole killed cells of P. haemolytica in a dosage effective to immunize an animal against the organism, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The killed cells of P. haemolytica are produced by irradiating viable cells with ultraviolet light for a sufficient period of time to kill the cells.
