Department of Microbiology

Research Priorities

  • Isolation and identification of the causative agents of the newly emerging microbial diseases of livestock and poultry.
  • Preparation and evaluation of biologics (vaccines, antimicrobial factors, diagnostic reagents, etc).
  • Qualitative and quantitative detection of mycotoxins and measures to overcome mycotoxicosis in animals.
  • Physico-chemical factors affecting the survival of microbial pathogens (Bio-security).
  • Immunigenetics, Immunotherapy, Immunomodulations, Immunoprophylaxis, Immunoregulations and Immunodiagnosis of various diseases.
