| Abstract: | Antibody titers were measured in domestic or European ferret (Mustela putorius furo) jills vaccinated with modified-live canine distemper virus (CDV) vaccine and in their kits. The half-life of maternal antibody to CDV in ferrets was 9.43 days. Ferret kits should be vaccinated against CDV at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age. |
