Inactivated IB-H52
Composition:
Each dose contains not less than a pre-inactivation titer of 1 x 106.9 EID50 of Avian Infectious Bronchitis virus.
Indication:
An inactivated vaccine developed for breeder hens and commercial layers to provide broad protection, throughout the production lifecycle, against various strains of Avian Infectious Bronchitis. Additionally, it gives high levels of parental immunity to the progeny. Untreated early infection with IB can cause loss of egg production capability, reducing profitability of the flock.
Vaccination Program:
- The birds should be ‘primed’ with a mild or intermediate strain of live virus bronchitis vaccine at least 4 weeks prior to administration of this inactivated vaccine.
- The vaccine should be administered at 16-20 weeks of age.
- A dose of 0.5 ml per bird is recommended.
- If birds are held for a second year, breeders should revaccinate during molt.
Administration:
This vaccine should be brought to room temperature before use. It must be injected subcutaneously in the lower neck region using standard aseptic techniques. Ensure that all birds in the flock are properly vaccinated, but do not vaccinate within 42 days of slaughter.
Pack Size and Storage:
The vaccine is available in 500 ml polypropylene bottles and 18 vials are packed per case. Each bottle contains 1000 doses of the vaccine. Protect the vaccine from light and store between 2°C and 8°C; do not freeze it.
