Live Attenuated Indigenous CSF Cell Culture Vaccine (IVRI-CSF-BS):

The Classical Swine Fever (CSF) is an important disease of pigs that causes 100% mortality.
In India, the disease is controlled by a lapinized CSF vaccine (Weybridge Strain, U.K.) produced by killing large numbers of rabbits.
To avoid this, the ICAR-IVRI developed a Cell Culture CSF Vaccine using the Lapinized Vaccine Virus from foreign strain.
