Coopers Bovilis Piliguard Pinkeye Vaccine is for use in healthy cattle to aid in the prevention of pinkeye associated with infection by Moraxella bovis strains expressing pili similar to those in the vaccine.
Strain coverage: Research conducted on samples collected from NSW, Victoria, Tasmania and SA has demonstrated that Piliguard will aid in the prevention of pinkeye caused by 65% of Moraxella bovis strains collected from these states. Isolates from QLD and WA have not been tested. If a vaccinated animal is exposed to a strain of Moraxella bovis that does not cross react with this product, no protection against disease can be assumed.
Composition: chemically-inactivated cultures of Moraxella bovis isolates (> 1.0 RP per antigen per 2 mL dose) in an oil emulsion adjuvant, with gentamicin as preservative.
Dose: 2 mL by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection into the side of the anterior third of the neck, three to six (3-6) weeks prior to the onset of the pinkeye season. Annual revaccination is recommended immediately prior to the beginning of the pinkeye season.
Withholding period: Zero (0) days. Export slaughter interval (ESI): Zero (0) days.
Storage: Store at 2 to 8°C (refrigerate, do not freeze).
