How are rabbits inoculated?
Sites(s) of injection – Initial inoculation given subcutaneously in the inguinal and axillary regions and Intramuscularly in the hind limb. Booster injections given subcutaneously along back and Intramuscularly in hind limb
Number of sites – Dependent upon volume of antigen/adjuvant mixture which is no more than 2ml total (most projects are typically 1ml total mixture) When using 1ml antigen/adjuvant mixture then there are 4 subcutaneous sites and 1 Intramuscular site all at 0.2ml per site
Volume per site – Subcutaneous site no more than 0.2ml per site; Intramuscular site no more than 0.5ml per site
