Abstract

There is clearly a revolution going on in the methodology which is used to develop new diagnostics, prophylactics and therapeutics for human and veterinary medicine. It is fortunate for the bovine practitioner that many of the first veterinary products developed using new biotechnology techniques have been for use in cattle. The possibilities for future veterinary products derived by these methods will be limited only by the financial and time resources committed to such endeavors by public research institutions and private industry.
