AviPro Salmonella Duo
Active substance
ATC code
Species
Chickens (future breeders and future layer hens), turkey breeders and turkeys for meat production and ducks for meat production.
Indications
Chickens (future breeders and future layer hens):
For active immunisation of healthy and susceptible chickens to reduce faecal excretion and colonisation of internal organs with Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium field strains and to reduce colonisation of eggs with Salmonella Enteritidis field strains.
| Onset of immunity: | 15 days. |
| Duration of immunity: | 52 weeks against virulent S. Enteritidis and 46 weeks against virulent S. Typhimurium from the time of the last vaccination when used according to the recommended vaccination schedule. |
Turkey breeders and turkeys for meat production:
For active immunisation of healthy and susceptible turkeys to reduce colonisation of internal organs with Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium field strains. In general, the colonisation of internal organs of vaccinated turkeys with challenge bacteria is reduced compared to unvaccinated turkeys; a statistically significant reduction could not be shown in all instances.
| Onset of immunity: | 21 days after first vaccination. |
| Duration of immunity: |
for future breeders: 30 weeks against virulent Salmonella Enteritidis and 28 weeks against virulent Salmonella Typhimurium from the time of the last vaccination when used according to the recommended vaccination schedule.
|
Ducks for meat production:
For active immunisation of healthy and susceptible ducks to reduce colonisation of internal organs with Salmonella Typhimurium field strains.
| Onset of immunity: | 22 days. |
| Duration of immunity: | 43 days. |
Dose to be administered and administration route
For oral use after resuspension in drinking water.
Advice on correct administration:
The contents of opened bottles should be used completely.
Prepare only the amounts of the vaccine that will be used within 4 hours.
Protect the reconstituted vaccine from direct sunlight, frost and temperatures above 25 °C. Follow these instructions for correct administration, so that all birds receive the appropriate dose.
Vaccination scheme:
AviPro SALMONELLA DUO may be used from the 1st day of life.
Ducks for meat production: A single dose from first day of life.
Chickens (future breeders and future layer hens): A single dose from first day of life followed by a second vaccination at an age of 6 to 8 weeks and a third vaccination around the 16th week of life at least 3 weeks before onset of lay.
Turkeys for meat production: A single dose from the first day of life followed by a second vaccination at an age of 6 weeks.
Turkey breeders: A single dose from the first day of life followed by a second vaccination at an age of 6 weeks, a third vaccination at an age of 16 weeks and a fourth vaccination at an age of 23-24 weeks.
Administration via the drinking water:
1. Determination of the required amount of water:
• Ideally the vaccine should be administered in the volume of water consumed by the birds within 3 hours. Use water meter recording for the previous day to accurately determine the correct quantity of water in each case. Alternatively, the amount of water needed can be calculated out of the number and age of birds combined with the information given in the water consumption tables from the breeding companies.
• Under hot climatic conditions and in heavy breeds or species other than chickens, especially in the case of older turkeys, this amount might need to be increased to ensure sufficient water uptake of each bird.
2. Resuspension of the lyophilisate:
• The whole content of a vial should be used for one house or drinking system as splitting may lead to dosing errors.
• All equipment used for the vaccination (pipes, hoses, tubes, etc.) should be thoroughly cleaned and free of detergent and disinfectant residues.
• Use only cool, clean and fresh water, preferably free of chlorine and metal ions. Skimmed milk powder (<1% fat) (2–4 grams per litre of water) or skimmed milk (20–40 ml per litre of water) can improve the quality of tap water and thus the stability of the vaccine. However, this has to be done at least 10 minutes prior to adding the vaccine.
• Open the vaccine vial under water and dissolve thoroughly. As the concentrated vaccine is slightly viscous, care should be taken to empty the ampoule and its top completely by rinsing them in water. Vaccine solution must be stirred thoroughly for several minutes before administration.
3. Application of the resuspended vaccine:
• Allow water in the drinkers to be consumed so that levels prior to vaccine applications are minimal. If water is still present, the lines must be drained before applying the vaccine.
• Apply vaccine over (up to) 3 hours, ensuring that all birds drink during this time. Due to the varying drinking behaviour of chickens, it might be necessary to withhold water on some sites prior to vaccination in order to ensure that all birds drink during the vaccination period.
• A period of thirst of up to 2–3 hours before vaccination might be necessary to ensure that every bird receives a vaccine dose.
• Make sure that birds do not have access to plain (vaccine free) water during vaccination.
