NEWCASTLE-BRONCHITIS VACCINE
B1 Type, B1 Strain, Mass & Ark Types, Live Virus
Coarse Spray
Description
This live virus vaccine is prepared from a B1 Strain of Newcastle disease virus and a mild Massachusetts and mild Arkansas types of infectious bronchitis virus. The viruses have been propagated using SPF substrates.
Trivac-Ark Indications For Use
This vaccine is recommended for the vaccination of healthy chickens one day of age or older by coarse spray administration as an aid in the prevention of disease due to Newcastle Disease and bronchitis virus (Massachusetts and Arkansas types).
Vaccination Program
Many factors must be considered in determining a sound vaccination program for a particular farm or poultry complex. To be fully effective, the vaccine must be administered properly to healthy, receptive chickens maintained in a proper environment under good management. In addition, the response may be influenced by the age of the chickens and their immune status. Seldom does one live virus vaccination under field conditions produce lifetime protection for all individuals in a given flock. The level of immunity required will vary with operational practices and the degree of exposure. Therefore, a program of periodic revaccinations may be necessary.
Preparation Of Vaccine

DO NOT OPEN AND MIX THE VACCINE UNTIL READY TO BEGIN VACCINATION. USE VACCINE IMMEDIATELY AFTER MIXING.
1. Remove the tear-off seal and stopper from vial containing the lyophilized vaccine.
