[Subject Matter] Animal Health [Docket] 69.08 [Title] HIGH ENERGY ELECTRON-BEAM IRRADIATION FOR THE PRODUCTION OF IMMUNOMODULATORS IN POULTRY [Description] 
Invention to produce effective vaccines utilizing High Energy (10 MeV) Electron-Beam (E-beam) Irradiation offers unique and effective methodologies to produce large volumes of vaccines including viruses, bacteria, and protozoal candidates. The stated invention relies on using high energy ionizing radiation to "kill" the target microorganism without destroying their immunogenicity (i.e., capacity to elicit an immune response).
