RINNOVAC™ ELI-7

RINNOVAC™ ELI-7 is a live-attenuated monovalent freeze-dried virus vaccine containing NDV GII VG/GA strain and NDV GVII virus. Target Species : Chickens. Composition – Live recombinant Newcastle Disease Virus [rNDV:VG/GA-F7] [rgNDV1/ME.G7/2017] strain ≥ 6.5 log10 EID50/dose. Indications: Active immunization in chickens from the first day of age to reduce clinical signs and mortality associated with Newcastle Disease. Vaccination Program Birds can be vaccinated from one day of age onwards, as per advice from your poultry veterinarian. For optimal booster effects in long production cycles, the birds should be primed with live NDV vaccines.   Onset of immunity: 2 weeks after primary vaccination. Duration of immunity: until 6 weeks after single dose. The vaccine virus can spread to unvaccinated birds, however this does not induce any sign of disease. Live NDV may cause conjunctivitis in humans, therefore protective disposable gloves and safety glasses should be worn when handling the vaccine. Administration The vaccine should be reconstituted and administered either via eye drop, spray, or drinking water routes.
  • Eye drop: Dilute 1,000 doses into 3 to 5 ml of non-chlorinated drinking water and subsequently subdilute this into 30-50 ml of non-chlorinated drinking water. Use a calibrated dropper to distribute 30-50 μl-drops. Place one drop of the vaccine solution on the eye of each bird, allow the drop to spread, and release the bird.
  • Spray vaccination: Spray the vaccine solution above the birds using a spray capable of producing micro-droplets (mean diameter 80- 100 μm). Make sure that birds are closely confined together during spraying. The ventilation system of the poultry house should be inoperative during the spray administration.
  • Drinking water: When using tap water, treat all water with skimmed milk powder at a rate of 2.5 g per liter to neutralize traces of chlorine. Distribute the vaccine solution at the time of use to birds. Birds should be deprived of water for two hours before vaccination.
RINNOVAC™ ELI-7 is packed and presented in vials (1,000, 2,500 and 5,000 doses).
