Product information
IMMUCOX® 5
COMPOSITION
IMMUCOX®5 contains live, sporulated oocysts of Eimeria acervuline, E. maxima, E. tenella, E. necatrix and E. brunetti in a liquid suspension
INDICATIONS
IMMUCOX®5 is designed for the purpose of delivering uniformly low doses of live oocysts to chickens to aid in the development of immunity against coccidiosis. When administered according to the directions IMMUCOX®5 can prevent mortality cause by Eimeria acervuline, E. maxima, E. tenella, E. necatrix and E. brunetti.
ADMINISTRATION AND DOSAGE
For 10,000 doses of IMMUCOX® Gel-Droplet
1. Add 70g of CevaGel diluent to 2.5L of distilled water. Mix well with a blender.
2. Add 10,000 doses of IMMUCOX®5 vaccine to the CevaGel solution and mix with
a blender.
3. Spray 25mL of vaccine per 100 birds using a gel spray equipment

Key Benefits
Safety & Efficacy
IMMUCOX®5 is designed to induce strong protective immunity with minimal intestinal damage.
This is achieved by having an ideal number of full-cycle Eimeria oocysts in the vaccine. The ingestion of a low amount of full-cycle oocysts efficiently triggers the immune response:
-Ideal oocyst number: minimal intestinal damage resulting in no detrimental effect on performance
-Full-cycle Eimeria species: development of early strong immunity to cocci
Consistency
IMMUCOX®5 is designed to maximize consistency in viability and infectivity over the product’s shelf like making it SAFE and CONSISTENT.
The viability and infectivity of a coccidiosis vaccine can be affected by the concentration of amylopectin in the parasite. Amylopectin is used by the parasite as a source of energy to survive and to access, invade and develop in their host cells.1 The vaccine storage time and storage conditions affect the amylopectin concentration and vaccine parasite replication. IMMUCOX®5 is designed to ensure minimal variation in viability and infectivity during its shelf life, due to a combination of a low amount of oocysts and highly viable oocysts
Vaccine Uptake
The CevaGel formulation and innovative delivery system ensure a high rate of vaccine uptake
and uniform oocyst distribution.
IMMUCOX®5 is applied to chicks using Desvac In-line Duo Spray & Gel and CevaGel technology. The system
is audited on a regular basis by the vaccination, service and equipment team with the CHICK program.
