Description
FLUSURE™/RESPISURE-ONE®/ER BAC® PLUS is a freeze-dried preparation containing 2 type-A field isolates, subtypes H1N1 and H3N2, of inactivated swine influenza viruses grown on an established cell line, plus a liquid preparation of a chemically inactivated whole cell culture of M. hyopneumoniae and a serum-free, clarified E. rhusiopathiae culture. The liquid component contains Amphigen®, a unique oil-in-water adjuvant to enhance the immune response, and is used to rehydrate the freeze-dried vaccine
Approved Uses
Vaccination of healthy swine 3 weeks of age or older as an aid in preventing respiratory disease caused by swine influenza virus (SIV) subtypes H1N1 and H3N2, erysipelas caused by Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae for a period of 20 weeks, and respiratory disease caused by Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae for a period of 23 weeks.
Key Features
- Proven, effective, bivalent swine-flu protection. FLUSURE™ aids in the prevention of respiratory disease caused by swine influenza (SIV) subtypes H1N1 and H3N2 – the two subtypes most often diagnosed in U.S. swine herds.
- Safe. In safety studies on hundreds of pigs and pregnant sows, animals vaccinated with FLUSURE showed no systemic reactions. Pigs vaccinated with FLUSURE were 100% injection-site-reaction-free and sows were 99.5% injection-site-reaction-free. Pregnant sows vaccinated with FLUSURE farrowed at similar rates and had pigs born live, born dead and mummies similar to saline vaccinated control sows.
- Reduction of lung lesions. Pigs vaccinated with FLUSURE/RESPISURE-ONE/ER BAC PLUS at 3 weeks of age showed an 82% reduction in lung lesions caused by a virulent mycoplasma challenged. This study confirmed that FLUSURE does not interfere with RESPISURE-ONE®
- One dose administration. RESPISURE-ONE is the first mycoplasma vaccine with a single-dose administration and 23-week duration of immunity.
- Improved immune response. Amphigen, the adjuvant in FLUSURE/RESPISURE-ONE/ER BAC PLUS, provides for a longer duration of immunity with a high degree of safety, ease of use and syringeability.
- New Generation. ER BAC PLUS is a new “2nd Generation” vaccine. Older “1st Generation” Erysipelas vaccines only require 2.5 weeks of proven duration of immunity and may leave pigs vulnerable to infection later in the production cycle.
