Nobilis MG 6/85
Active substance
ATC code
Species
Chickens (pullets for egg production, future layers).
Indications
Active immunisation of future layers to reduce airsacculitis and tracheitis lesions caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum.
Onset of immunity: 4 weeks.
Duration of immunity: 24 weeks (using a typical batch containing 7.5 log10 CFU).
Dose to be administered and administration route
After reconstitution, administer 1 dose of vaccine by nebulisation (fine-spray) to chickens (future layers) from 6 weeks of age. Use the entire contents when first opened.
Preparation of vaccine
1. Use only clean, cool, non-chlorinated, preferably distilled water of ≤ 25 °C. The volume of water for reconstitution should be sufficient to ensure an even distribution when sprayed onto the birds. This will vary according to the size of the birds being vaccinated and the management system, but 250 to 400 ml of water per 1 000 doses is recommended. Follow the instructions of the fine-spraying device.
2. Open the vial submerged under water.
3. Remove the seal and stopper from the vial.
The reconstituted vaccine must be clear, with no flocculation and sediments.
Reconstituted product: clear suspension, with no flocculation and sediments.
Administration
1. Vaccinate with a fine-spraying device suitable for nebulization application of vaccines (particle size: < 100 µm). The vaccine suspension should be spread evenly over the correct number of birds, at a distance of approximately 40 cm.
2. Do not use any disinfectants, skimmed milk or other agents impairing the performance of the vaccine in the fine-spraying device.
3. Shut off all fans and close air-inlets while fine-spray vaccinating.
4. Clean the fine-spraying device thoroughly after use according to the manufacturer’s recommendation.
Adverse reactions
None known.
Reporting adverse events is important. It allows continuous safety monitoring of a veterinary medicinal product. Reports should be sent, preferably via a veterinarian, to either the marketing authorisation holder or the national competent authority via the national reporting system.
