Active Ingredient(s)

This product is a live virus fowl laryngotracheitis vaccine of chicken embryo origin manufactured from SPF (Specific Pathogen Free) eggs.

Contains streptomycin and penicillin as preservatives.

This vaccine was carefully produced and passed all tests in accordance with the U.S. Government requirements.

AviPro LT Indications

For administration to chickens for the prevention of Laryngotracheitis.

For intranasal, intraocular, or aerosol use.

It is recommended that birds be at least 5 weeks of age when vaccinated. The older the birds at time of vaccination, the more effective will be the immunization using this product. Vaccinate younger birds only if absolutely necessary. Revaccinate birds if they are under 5 weeks of age when first given vaccine if they are to be held for layers.

In the event of a natural outbreak of Laryngotracheitis on a farm, this vaccine should be used immediately to help stop the outbreak. Unaffected birds should be vaccinated first, followed by the pens of birds in which the outbreak occurred.

AviPro LT Dosage And Administration

Preparation of Vaccine for Intranasal and Intraocular Use: Remove the aluminum tear seal and rubber stopper from the vaccine bottle. Pour some of the diluent into the bottle. Replace the rubber stopper and shake vigorously. Pour the mixed vaccine back into the bottle containing the remaining diluent and attach the dropper tip. The vaccine is now ready for use.

Method of Vaccination: The vaccine may be administered by way of the nostril (intranasally) or the eye (intraocularly). When the vaccine is administered by way of the nostril, the beak is held shut, a finger is placed over one nostril and a drop of vaccine, from the applicator, is dropped into the other nostril.

When used intraocularly, birds are held on their side and one drop of the mixed vaccine allowed to fall into the open eye. Hold the bird until the drop of vaccine disappears. Take care to prevent injury to the cornea of the eye with the dropper tip.

Preparation of Vaccine for Aerosol Use: Remove the aluminum overseal and stopper from the vaccine bottle and pour part of the diluent into the bottle. Shake well and pour the vaccine back into the remaining diluent. Pour the entire contents into the reservoir of a sprayer containing 70 mL of deionized water or 5 mL of glycerine and 65 mL of deionized water. Before the vaccination the sprayer should be calibrated so that 100 mL will be delivered in 3 minutes.

Method of Vaccination: Confine the birds to a corner of the house with fences and direct the stream from the sprayer over the heads of the birds. Extreme caution should be taken to prevent birds from smothering during this operation.

Contraindication(s)

Birds to be vaccinated should be free of disease, including the latent form of diseases such as Chronic Respiratory Disease (CRD), coccidiosis, blackhead, parasitic disease, etc.

If there are susceptible laying birds on the premises there is the possibility that the virus might spread from the vaccinated to the susceptible birds and affect egg production.

Precaution(s)

Keep vaccine in the dark, between 2-7°C (35-45°F).

Use the entire contents when first opened. Burn this container and all unused contents.

AviPro LT Caution(s)

When administered to susceptible birds, a mild form of the disease results which stimulates immunity.

Parental immunity and immunological incompetence is a major factor in preventing young birds from developing immunity. When this vaccine is administered, the duration of immunity resulting from vaccination is directly related to the age of the birds and their susceptibility at the time this vaccine is administered.

The duration of immunity resulting from the use of this vaccine is not permanent; therefore, revaccinations are necessary.

It is imperative that the user of this product comply with the indications for use, contraindications, and method of vaccination stated on the direction sheet. The vaccine must be prepared and administered as directed to obtain best results.

No vaccine confers immediate protection. While immunity begins to develop immediately, it takes 9 days to two weeks for birds to establish immunity, during which time they should not be placed in contaminated premises nor otherwise exposed to Laryngotracheitis.

All susceptible birds on any farm should be vaccinated at the same time.

Warning(s)

Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter.

Care should be taken to avoid contaminating hands, eyes and clothing with the vaccine.

For veterinary use only.
