Salmonella oil
We offer Salmonella oil emulsion vaccine which is a bivalent and inactivated vaccine consisting of Salmonella enteritidis and Salmonella typhimurium.
- The vaccine can decrease public health risk caused by Salmonella organisms in poultry products by reducing the colonization of reproductive tissues and faecal shedding.
- Although live vaccines usually have better protective effects when compared with inactivated vaccines, the humoral response, highly inducible by inactivated vaccines, is especially important for conferring maternal antibodies to the progeny.
- The vaccine is recommended for the protection of chickens and turkeys against Salmonella infection.
- This vaccine was developed by Biovac Biological Laboratories, using metabolic drift mutations which are mutations in essential enzymes and metabolic regulatory centres.
- On per-oral vaccination, this vaccine elicits protection by the invasion and multiplication of Salmonella in the mucosa-associated lymphatic tissues (MALT) and gut-associated lymphatic tissues (GALT) such as Peyer’s patches.
- The vaccine strain survives and multiplies for a period of time just sufficient for eliciting a protective response.
- Do not freeze this vaccine, store at 2ºC-8ºC.
