Inactivated vaccine,
bovine mastitis,
in injectable emulsion

PER DOSE:

Inactivated Escherichia coli (J5): > 50 RED₆₀*; Inactivated Staphylococcus aureus (CP8) SP 140 strain expressing SAAC**: > 50 RED₈₀***. Adjuvant.
* RED60: Rabbit effective dose in 60% of the animals (serology).
**SAAC: Slime Associated Antigenic Complex.
***RED80: Rabbit effective dose in 80% of the animals (serology).

Cows and Heifers: To prevent mastitis.

• For herd immunisation of healthy cows and heifers, in dairy cattle herds with recurring mastitis problems, to reduce the incidence of sub-clinical mastitis and the incidence and the severity of the clinical signs of clinical mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus, coliforms and coagulase-negative staphylococci.
• The full immunisation scheme induces immunity from approximately day 13 after the first injection until approximately day 78 after the third injection (equivalent to 130 days post-parturition).
• It can be used during pregnancy and lactation.

   

• Slight to moderate transient local reactions may occur after the administration of the vaccine, which disappears within 1 or 2 weeks at most.

Intramuscular, into the neck muscles.

• The injections should be preferably administered on the alternate sides of the neck.
• Administer the vaccine at a room temperature between +15 and +25 ºC.
• Shake before use.

Cows and Heifers: 2 ml/animal.

• Intramuscular use. The injections should be preferably administered on the alternate sides of the neck. Allow the vaccine to reach a temperature of +15 to + 25 °C before administration. Shake before use.

• Administer one dose (2 ml) by deep intramuscular injection in the neck muscles at 45 days before the expected parturition date and 1 month thereafter administer a second dose (at least 10 days before calving). A third dose should be administered 2 months thereafter.

• The whole herd should be immunised. Immunisation has to be considered as one component in a complex mastitis control program that addresses all important udder health factors (e.g. milking technique, dry-off and breeding management, hygiene, nutrition, bedding, cow confort, air and water quality, health monitoring) and other management practices.

0 days.

• Store at +2 to +8 ºC, avoiding freezing. Protect from light.
