Vaccines for Canine Leishmaniasis

, 2023
AbstractVisceral leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease in many countries and dogs are considered the main domestic reservoir of Leishmania parasites, and the presence of infected animals represents a potential risk for human disease. In this chapter, we review the state-of-the-art of canine visceral leishmaniasis (CanL) vaccines, discussing the ...
