 | This article needs more citations. (May 2026) |
Veterinary immunology is the study of the immune system in animals and how it functions in health and disease. It is a branch of biomedical science closely related to veterinary medicine and zoology.[1]
The field examines how animals respond to pathogens, how vaccines stimulate immunity, and why immune responses sometimes fail or lead to adverse reactions.[2] It also studies immune disorders and mechanisms of disease resistance in different species.[3]
Veterinary immunology is essential in improving animal health and developing vaccines for livestock and companion animals.[4]
