Layermune 5 Indications

The vaccine is indicated for use in healthy chickens prior to the onset of egg production against diseases caused by infectious bursal disease viruses (standard and variant types), Newcastle disease virus and infectious bronchitis virus of the Mass. serotype. One dose of LAYERMUNE^® 5 provides uniform and high serological titers eliminating the need for use of live Newcastle-bronchitis vaccines during lay.

Breeder vaccination provides maternal antibody to the progeny of breeder hens for the prevention of early exposure to bursal disease.
