2. What is Vaccine?
•A vaccine is a biological preparation that
improves immunity to a particular disease
•A vaccine typically contains an agent that
resembles a disease-causing
microorganism

3. Vaccine vs Bacterin

4. How Vaccine Prepared
•It is often made from weakened or killed forms of
the microbe,

5. Types of Vaccines
•Live
•Attenuated
•Killed/ Inactivated

6. Live vs Killed Vaccines

7. Why Vaccination is necessary?
•To induce high MDA (Maternally
Derived Antibodies)
•To prevent & control the disease
•To enhance the immune status

8. Vaccinal Immunity
•Live vaccine peak response after 10 days
•Killed after 21 days

9. What is required for good
immune response?

10. Vaccine and Immunosuppressive
Diseases
Don’t vaccine during immunosuppressive
disease i.e.
1. IBD
2. CIA
3. MD
4. Coccidiosis

11. Characteristics of ideal Vaccine
•Safe
•Efficacious
• Pure

12. Vaccine Transportation
•Prevent Temperature Fluctuations
•4°C for live vaccines,
•-80oC for cell associated Marek’s
•Prevent from sunlight

13. General procedures
•Timing
•Doses and types
•Record all vaccination procedures
•Don’t vaccine during stress, disease, immuno
suppression, off-feeding etc.

14. Vaccination at Farm
•Water
•Spray
•Eye drop
•S/C or I/M

22. I/M, Breast

23. S/C

27. Medication

28. Purpose
•Prevention
•Cure
•Growth Promoter

29. Commonly Used Medicines
•Antibiotics
•Coccidiostates/ Anticoccidials
•Liver tonics

30. Commonly Used Antibiotics in Poultry
• Lincomycin
• Enramycin
• Avilamycin
• Penicillin
• Amoxicillin
• Colistin
• Tetracyclin
• Doxycycline
• Tylocin
• Tilmicosin
• Tiamulin
• Spiramycin
• Enrofloxacin
• Floramphenicol

31. Coccidiostates

32. Coccidiosis
•Protozoal disease of poultry with high
mortality
•Mostly affect birds of 3-6 weeks of age
•Broilers are more susceptible than layers
•Intestinal coccidiosis mostly occurs in
older birds
•Caused by 9 Eimeria spp

33. Coccidiosis Type Caused by
Intestinal E. necatrix, E. maxima, E. mivati, E.
acervulina
Caecal E. tenella and to some extent E.
necatrix
Rectal E. brunetti

34. Coccidiostates
•Used to prevent replication and growth of
coccidial population
•Prophylaxis is important that treatment
•Normally used in feed at preventive
doses

35. Categories of Coccidiostates
•Synthetic
•Ionophores or polyether antibiotics
•Mixed (combination of different
anticoccidials from same or different
groups)

37. Dosage

Nicarbazine 0.0125
Monensin 0.01-0.0121
