    Abstract:
    This study evaluated the safety of and humoral response to the Merial Recombitek® recombinant canine distemper virus (rCDV) vaccine in maned wolves (n = 9, age 2-9 yr). All maned wolves had prior history of annual vaccination with the Merial Purevax® ferret rCDV vaccine. Serum neutralization (SN) to CDV was measured prior to initial vaccination with the rCDV Recombitek vaccine followed by a booster vaccination at 4-6 wk. Final SN titers were obtained at 13 wk post initial vaccination. The maned wolves developed no observable adverse side effects through the study. Pre-Recombitek vaccination SN titers ranged from negative to 1: 8. Postvaccination CDV titers ranged from negative to 1: 8, and were therefore below the range of that considered protective in domestic dogs.
