La Sota
La Sota
The vaccine contains the LaSota strain of Newcastle disease virus. The virus has been
propagated in fertile eggs from specific pathogen free flocks. The immunizing capability
of the vaccine has been proven by the master seed immunogenicity test. The vaccine
offers proven immunity with mild reactions.
Contains streptomycin and penicillin as bacteriostatic agents.
Notice: The vaccine has undergone rigid potency, safety, and purity tests and meets
Merial Select, Inc., and USDA requirements.
2. Remove all medication, sanitizers and disinfectants from the drinking water 72 hours
prior to vaccination.
3. Provide sufficient waterers so that all of the birds can drink at one time. Clean and
rinse the waterers thoroughly.
4. Withhold all water from the birds for two (2) to four (4) hours prior to vaccination to
stimulate thirst.
5. Add nonfat dry milk to the water at the rate of one (1) ounce per gallon before mixing
the vaccine.
6. Remove the aluminum seal and rubber stopper from a vaccine vial.
7. Fill the vaccine vial two-thirds (2/3) full with clean, cool water and mix gently.
9. Distribute the vaccine solution among the waterers. Avoid direct sunlight.
10. Do not provide any other drinking water until all of the vaccine mixture has been
consumed.
Spray Aerosol Vaccination: Use only for revaccination of healthy chickens two (2) weeks
of age or older. Do not use for initial vaccination.
Use a sprayer delivering an aerosol-like mist to disperse the rehydrated vaccine quickly
and evenly throughout a house of chickens.
Directions:
1. Remove the aluminum seal and rubber stopper from the vaccine vial.
2. Fill the vaccine vial full with cool, distilled water. Pour the dissolved vaccine into a
container and add approximately 500 mL of cool, distilled water per 5,000 doses of
vaccine. Mix thoroughly.
3. For spray aerosol vaccination of a house of chickens, apply at the rate of 500 mL per
5,000 chickens.
5. Place the vaccine solution into the sprayer canister, set the discharge control and
walk through the house spraying at the rate of 1,000 birds per minute. Direct the spray
above the heads of the birds.
6. Whatever volume of vaccine solution is used, take care to administer 5,000 doses of
vaccine to 5,000 birds.
7. Prior to spraying, reduce the air flow to a minimum. Keep air flow reduced for 20
minutes following spray vaccination.
8. Avoid direct contact with the vaccine solution. Wear goggles and a mask while
spraying a live virus vaccine.
9. Any equipment used for the application of a live virus vaccine should not be used for
any other purpose.
Precaution(s)
Store at 35-45°F (2-7°C). Do not freeze.
Vaccinate all of the birds on the same premises at the same time.
Do not start vaccination program for replacement pullets after birds are 16 weeks old.
Since Newcastle disease virus can cause inflammation of the eyelids of humans lasting
up to three days, care should be taken to avoid contamination of the eyes, hands and
clothing with the vaccine.
The capability of these vaccines to produce satisfactory results depends upon many
factors, including, but not limited to, conditions of storage and handling by the user,
administration of the vaccine, health and the responsiveness of individual animals and
the degree of field exposure. Therefore, directions for use should be followed carefully.
The use of these vaccines is subject to applicable state and federal laws and
regulations.
Warning(s)
Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter.
