Safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of two Escherichia coli cya crp mutants as vaccines for broilers.

Abstract excerpt

Attenuated derivatives (delta cya delta crp mutants) of an O2 and an O78 avian septicemic Escherichia coli strain were used to immunize broiler chickens by spray to determine the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of the derivatives in single- and double-dose regimens. In the safety and immunogenicity studies, groups of 10 chickens were vaccinated by spray (droplet size approximately 20 microm) with the parent...
