TLDR:

  • Renaissance BioScience (RBSC) has partnered with the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization (VIDO) to develop yeast-based vaccines for swine diseases PEDV and PRRSV, as well as study gut health and immunity in pigs and piglets.
  • The collaboration, funded by a $600,000 award from the Saskatchewan Agricultural Development Fund, aims to develop cost-effective, safe, non-invasive health solutions that can be included in pigs’ feed.

Renaissance BioScience (RBSC) has partnered with the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization (VIDO) to develop yeast-based vaccines for two swine diseases, porcine epidemic diarrheal virus (PEDV) and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in the first project. RBSC and VIDO will also study gut health, immunity, and overall growth in piglets in a second project. The collaboration, funded by a $600,000 award from the Saskatchewan Agricultural Development Fund, aims to develop cost-effective, safe, non-invasive health solutions that can be conveniently included in pigs’ feed. The yeast-based approach aims to enhance the health and productivity of agricultural animals, contributing to a more sustainable and efficient food solution for the growing global population.
