Introducing SRP Technology
SRP Technology is a unique way to make vaccines. SRP vaccines utilize siderophore receptors and porins, specialized proteins on the outer membrane of the bacteria, to create an immune response in animals.
 
Dairy Salmonellosis
The incidence of salmonella has increased dramatically in recent years. Dairy producers are coming to the realization that salmonella bacteria are present on all dairy operations.

AgriLabs Partnership
Steve Schram, President and CEO of AgriLabs, describes the impact of new technology on animal disease problems. AgriLabs is the exclusive marketer of Salmonella Newport Bacterial Extract, made with SRP Technology.

SRP Proteins are Critical
All SRP Technology vaccines are made from a purified extract of siderophore receptors and porins - specialized pores on the outer membrane of the cell wall. SRP's are critical to the bacteria's ability to acquire and transport essential iron into the cell.

The Key to SRP is Iron
Iron is essential for the growth and reproduction of bacteria. Siderophore receptors are pores in the cell wall that allow the bacteria to "steal" iron from their host, and actively transport it into the bacterial cell allowing infection and disease.

What is an SRP Vaccine?
Using propriety production techniques, siderophore receptors and porins are harvested from a bacterial culture. A highly purified extract of these proteins is created and becomes the vaccine antigen.

SRP Vaccines Compared to Bacterins
Conventional bacterial vaccines (bacterins) are made using whole bacterial cells. An immune response is focused against endotoxins on the bacterial surface. SRP vaccines contain an extract of purified proteins, rather than whole cells.

Revolutionizing Salmonella Prevention
Salmonella Newport Bacterial Extract vaccine using SRP technology is changing the way dairy producers are approaching their salmonella prevention program. This vaccine reduces both disease and intestinal shedding of the organism.
