ABSTRACT

Poultry vaccines are very important tools for disease prevention and may be administered collectively by drinking water or spray or individually by injection or oculonasal drop, whereas inactivated vaccines are administered by injection only. Poultry vaccines are increasingly delivered at the hatchery to day-old chicks or in ovo, because mass vaccination is much more efficiently implemented and controlled at the hatchery than on the farm. Mass administration on the farm by drinking water or spray requires strict compliance with guidelines regarding water quality, preparation of vaccines, and application, so as to cover the whole flock. Vaccination at the hatchery uses integrated machines to deliver vaccines to day-old chicks or, increasingly, in ovo at transfer from setters to hatchers. Regardless of the route and technology, a high quality of monitoring is critically important to maintain strict compliance and best practices from the vaccine vial to the bird, to guarantee efficient administration and intake of the vaccine by the whole flock and to secure the integrity of the vaccine itself. Major recent technical innovations in poultry vaccination covering both biology and technology open a very exciting era.


Estudio recapitulativo- Tecnología de vacunación en la avicultura: principios de administración de vacunas. Las vacunas para la avicultura son herramientas muy importantes para la prevención de enfermedades y pueden administrarse colectivamente mediante agua de bebida y por aerosol, también individualmente mediante inyección o por gota oculonasal, mientras que las vacunas inactivadas se administran únicamente mediante inyección. Las vacunas avícolas se administran cada vez más en la planta de incubación a pollitos de un día o in ovo, porque la vacunación masiva se implementa y controla mucho más eficientemente en la planta de incubación que en las granjas. La administración masiva en granja mediante agua de bebida o aspersión requiere el cumplimiento estricto de las pautas relativas a la calidad del agua, preparación de vacunas y aplicación, de manera de cubrir a toda la parvada. La vacunación en la planta de incubación utiliza máquinas integradas para administrar vacunas a los pollitos de un día o, de manera más frecuente, in ovo en el momento del traslado de las incubadoras a las nacedoras. Independientemente de la ruta y la tecnología, una alta calidad del monitoreo es de vital importancia para mantener un cumplimiento estricto y las mejores prácticas desde el vial de la vacuna hasta el ave, para garantizar la administración y la captación eficiente de la vacuna por toda la parvada y para asegurar la integridad de la vacuna. Las importantes innovaciones técnicas recientes en la vacunación en avicultura que abarcan tanto la biología como la tecnología están iniciando una era fascinante.

ABSTRACT

Based on a case observed and investigated on a commercial turkey farm in western France in 81-day-old birds, we report the pattern of H6N1 low-pathogenic avian influenza in this species. Diseased birds displayed an acute severe dyspnoea, leading to death by asphyxia of more than 5% of the flock. The most specific pathological feature was a constant diffuse infraorbital sinusitis, along with a focal necrotic exudate inside the lumen of the upper respiratory tract, characterized microscopically as a mixed fibrinous and leucocytic material. Influenza A immunohistochemistry revealed an intense staining of epithelial cells in tracheas, bronchi, air sacs and their luminal necrotic material. While no primary bacterial infection could be detected from diseased turkeys, influenza H6 reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis performed on tracheal swabs tested positive. Direct sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the eight segments showed that this H6N1 virus clustered closely within West European mallards' (group 3) H6 genotypes. A thorough analysis of genetic databases suggests that a regional waterfowl reservoir is likely to play a central role in H6 introductions in poultry farms, whose pathways remain to be elucidated.
