Merck to buy Harrisvaccines to boost livestock vaccine portfolio

2015-11-13 02:30:52| Livestock - Topix.net

Merck & Co Inc's animal health unit will buy privately held Harrisvaccines Inc to expand its portfolio of animal vaccines as the U.S. livestock industry seeks new defenses against diseases, the companies said on Thursday. The deal, which is expected to close by year-end, follows rival Zoetis Inc's agreement, announced on Nov. 2, to buy Pharmaq, a market leader in vaccines for farmed fish, for $765 million.
