Inactivated IBD REO

Composition:

Each dose contains not less than a pre-inactivation titer of 1 x 106.2 TCID50 Infectious Bursal disease virus, 1 x 105.8 TCID50 1733 & 1 x 106.3 TCID50 S1133 strains.

Indication:

An inactivated vaccine developed for breeder hens and replacement pullets to provide broad protection, throughout the production lifecycle, against Reo virus and Gumboro disease. Early infection with Gumboro disease can permanently damage immunity, and early infection with Reo virus can cause tenosynovitis and malabsorbtion syndrome, amongst other conditions. 

Vaccination Program: 

  • The birds should be ‘primed’ with a live virus tenosynovitis vaccine at 7 days and 12 weeks of age.
  • Additionally, prime with mild or intermediate strain of live IBD virus at 21 days and 12 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 before slaughter.

Pack Size and Storage:

The vaccine is available in 500 ml polypropylene bottles and 18 bottles 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.
