“Working with Struve Labs International has been critical to the ability of Prosetta Antiviral to advance a new approach to drug
discovery. By merging our concepts and tools with their state-of-the-art veterinary services, we have made important progress—indeed,
far more than I think would have been likely with any other source of veterinary services. Their knowledge, dedication to the goals of the
experiments, and willingness to go above and beyond what is provided by most contract research services organizations have been quite
remarkable. We owe them a deep debt of gratitude and view our success, in no small measure, as being due to their skills and adaptability.”

“We have used
CDCD pigs from Struve
Labs International for over
eleven years and have been very
happy with the pigs we have received.
They are viable animals and work
well for our testing procedures.”

“The
diagnostic
virology section
of the Kansas State
Veterinary Diagnostic
Laboratory (KSVDL)
is both a diagnostic and
research laboratory. From
a diagnostic perspective, we
often see new and/or emerging viral diseases associated with our
diagnostic submissions. From a research perspective, we have
the opportunity to investigate these unique viral pathogens.
One of the first things we try to do when investigating a new
disease syndrome is to generate a pure stock of virus in the host
animal. Most of the emerging/re-emerging diseases that we see
at KSVDL originate from pigs. We are very fortunate to have a
clean source of research animals to generate pure stocks of virus
in-CDCD pigs from Struve Labs International. Over the last
few years, Struve Labs International has supplied us with CDCD
pigs to prepare challenge stocks of virus for the epidemic strain
of PCV2B in 2006, a new emerging strain of PCV2B in 2012,
pandemic H1N1 influenza, torque teno virus (types 1 and 2), and
groups A, B, and C rotaviruses. These challenge stocks are critical
tools that we use to define pathogenesis, prepare diagnostic
reagents, and develop vaccines for the future. We consider Struve
Labs International a partner in our diagnostic research program,
and they go out of their way to supply us with quality CDCD
pigs whenever we need them.”
