Gumboro (M.B.)-200D

Description

Vaccine Overview

• Type: Live, partially attenuated Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV) — M.B. strain

• Strain Classification: Intermediate virulence — designed for areas with prevalent virulent IBD strains and varying maternal antibody levels

• Formulation: Freeze-dried, sealed vials produced in SPF (specific pathogen–free) embryonated eggs

Indications & Timing

• Primary Use: Prevention of Gumboro disease in healthy chicks

• Recommended Age for Vaccination: Day 10–12 post-hatch for optimal efficacy

Key Benefits

1. High Antigen Potency: Elevated antigen load ensures strong immunity and better protection

2. Single-Dose Ease: One vaccination typically suffices — efficient and cost-effective

3. Adapted to Field Challenge: Effective in areas with high virulent IBD strain presence and broad flock maternal antibody levels

4. Versatile Administration: Suitable for drinking-water vaccination or eye drops — practical for diverse farm setups

5. Manufacturing Quality: Produced under rigorous international/industry standards

6. Zero Retention Required: No withdrawal period for meat or eggs

 Practical Notes on Administration

• Water Vaccination: Reconstitute and dilute in sufficient cool water; neutralize chlorine where possible

• Eye‑drop Method: Reconstitute with sterile diluent; apply one drop per chick

• Timing Tip: By vaccinating at day 10–12, Gumboro (M.B.) virus effectively breaks through maternal antibodies — early immune activation

Why M.B. Strain Is Preferred

• Offers robust protection in high‐challenge environments

• Combines efficacy with minimal immune suppression and bursa damage (versus “hot” strains)

• Consistently produces high breakthrough ELISA titers — enabling earlier protective immunity
