Healthhas launched a new live vaccine to help
control Newcastle Disease.
Newcastle Disease, also referred to as pseudo-fowl pest, is
highly contagious and often results in high mortality in infected
flocks.
Developed by the German vaccine specialist from a cloned strain
of La Sota virus, AviPro ND C131 is suitable for broilers, layers
and breeders. It has European registration and is licensed for use
on chicks from 14 days old.
Cloned vaccines are thought to be more stable than mixed virus
strain vaccines, as they contain one set of "genetic information".
Batch-related differences decrease giving more predictable
performance.
It can be administered through the drinking water, via spray or
by eye-drops. For commercial layers re-vaccination during the
laying period is possible.
