Induction of early immunopotentiation to Fimbriae of Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) by administering thymulin and zinc to SE-vaccinated chicken breeders: relationship to protection

The purpose of this study is to attempt the induction of early immunopotentiation of antibodies specific to fimbriae of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (SE), by administering thymulin and zinc to SE-vaccinated chicken breeders, and the improvement of protection against a controlled-live challenge by SE. The first two groups of breeders were administered subcutaneously at 15 and 19 weeks of age a killed SE vaccine. Breeders of the third and fourth groups were left unvaccinated. Breeders of the first group, immunopotentiated by thymulin and zinc, were able to induce the earliest antibodies in their pooled sera at 2 weeks post the first SE-vaccination, specific to fimbriae (approximately 21 KDa) of SE. However, the second group that was only vaccinated with the same SE-vaccine produced specific antibodies to fimbriae at 3 weeks following the second vaccination (22 weeks of age). Breeders of the third group, that were neither SE-vaccinated nor immunopotentiated by thymulin and zinc, but were challenged by live SE at 22 weeks of age, were able to show specific antibodies to fimbriae at 3 weeks post challenge (25 weeks of age). The fourth group that was deprived of SE-vaccination, immunopotentiators, and challenge didn't show any background antibodies specific to SE-fimbriae. The presence of the earliest antibody-immunopotentiation to fimbriae of SE in breeders of the first group, administered thymulin and zinc, was associated with the lowest frequency of SE-infected ceca (10%) among the challenged groups. In addition, breeders of the first group were the only challenged birds resulting in absence of SE infection in their cecal tonsils. The first group-vaccinated, immunopotentiated, and challenged, and the second group-vaccinated and challenged only resulted in breeders with absence of SE infection in their oviducts and spleens. In conclusion, immunopotentiation of chicken breeders by thymulin and zinc induces the earliest specific antibodies to fimbriae of SE associated with the lowest frequency of SE-infected ceca, and absence of SE infection from cecal tonsils, oviducts and spleens.     

H5N1亚型禽流感灭活疫苗免疫鸵鸟后抗体消长规律及免疫程序的研究

为了探讨鸵鸟对H5亚型禽流感灭活疫苗的免疫原性,做好鸵鸟禽流感的防控工作,采用哈尔滨兽医研究所研制的重组H5N1亚型禽流感疫苗,不同剂量免疫鸵鸟,用HI方法检测母源抗体和免疫抗体,根据母源抗体的衰减和免疫抗体的消长规律确定首免和再免日龄.结果表明,雏鸵鸟母源抗体能维持约3周～8周;8周龄时分组首免,C1组产生的免疫反应优于C2组,抗体峰值能达到7.50 log2,维持时间为9周左右;17周龄时C1组以3.0 mL/羽进行二免,2周后抗体达到7.40log2,3周～7周抗体维持在高峰值,最高达8.80log2,以后逐渐下降,有效抗体水平能维持至接种后25周左右.二免后25周进行三免,以5 mL/羽三免后2周抗体可达到9.80log2,2周～4周抗体维持在最高峰,以后缓慢下降,期间抗体时有起伏,但有效抗体水平约可维持1年时间.三免后45周内抗体水平合格率均在70%以上.根据抗体消长规律,初步推荐了鸵鸟的免疫程序.
