Vibrin Campylobacter Fetus Bacterin Cattle Vaccine 50 Dose

Vibrin Campylobacter Fetus Bacterin Cattle Vaccine, 100mL/50 Dose

VIBRIN® is for vaccination of healthy cows and heifers as an aid in preventing campylobacteriosis (vibriosis) caused by Campylobacter fetus.

HOW IT WORKS
The special adjuvant base in the vaccine enhances and prolongs antigenic stimulation and may produce a localized vaccine granuloma. These are noninflammatory, however, and usually disappear in several weeks. Chemical inactivation renders VIBRIN® incapable of causing or spreading infectious disease.

What Is It For?

Helps protect against campylobacteriosis (vibriosis), a common but difficult-to-detect sexually transmitted reproductive disease of cattle that typically causes infertility, irregular estrus cycles, delayed conception and occasionally abortions. An indication of a vibriosis problem can be late bred and/or open cows.

A single dose is effective.

How Effective Is It?
Field use and extensive, controlled tests in breeding cattle under experimental conditions demonstrated that the serotype of Campylobacter fetus used in VIBRIN® was effective in prevention of campylobacteriosis. Pregnancy rates in vaccinated heifers were up to 44% higher than in nonvaccinated control heifers. All research conducted on VIBRIN indicated a single dose is effective.1

Dosage and Administration
Single subcutaneous (SC) dose is 2 mL, given to all breeding cows and heifers between 30 days and 7 months before breeding.
