High prevalence of antibodies against canine adenovirus (CAV) type 2 in domestic dog populations in South Africa precludes the use of CAV-based recombinant rabies vaccines

Highlights • Investigated prevalence of antibodies against canine adenovirus (CAV) in South African dogs. • High level of antibodies against CAV present in dog populations (40–60%). • Evaluated recombinant CAV2 vaccine expressing rabies virus glycoprotein in presence of CAV antibodies. • Presence of...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Investigated prevalence of antibodies against canine adenovirus (CAV) in South African dogs. • High level of antibodies against CAV present in dog populations (40–60%). • Evaluated recombinant CAV2 vaccine expressing rabies virus glycoprotein in presence of CAV antibodies. • Presence of CAV antibodies hampers RABV-specific seroconversion in dogs.
