SecureTab : Chlorine Neutralizer with Blue Dye

Published at ডিসেম্বর ৯, ২০২০

International Desk: SecureTab works as both a chlorine neutralizer and coloring agent to improve vaccination methods. SecureTab is an effective and easy to use tablet to neutralize chlorine and other water quality factors to increase vaccine viability. The blue colorant in the tablet also allows to check over the distribution of vaccines during vaccination process.

Mass vaccination of a flock via drinking water or by spray is a simple and quick method of vaccine administration.

For diseases  such  as  Avian  Encephalomye  litis,  Infectious  Bursal  Disease,  Newcastle  disease  and Infectious Bronchitis, oral entry is the natural route  into  the  body,  so  oral  vaccination  may  be  the  preferred  route  of  vaccination.  These disease  organisms also grow and reproduce in the intestinal  tract.  Many  variables  can  affect  the  success  and  effectiveness  of  water  vaccination  programs. Some factors are directly influenced by  the birds themselves, some are influenced by the  vaccine  and  some  are  influenced  by  equipment  and techniques used to supply the vaccine to the  birds.

Major concerns in drinking water vaccination

Live vaccines are particularly susceptible to Ultraviolet  light,  Heat,  Heavy  metals,  Chlorine,  Disinfectants and detergents, Organic matter 30 (litter, feed) and Moisture.

Protection from inactivation of Live vaccine 

Important issues to consider are correct handling, storage and mixing of the vaccine.  Other factors like residual sediment (bio film) in the water lines and  filters  will  inactivate the  vaccines.  Failure to  protect the vaccine may lead to partial protection  of  the  flock.  Other  water  quality  factors  play  an  important role in live vaccine viability like pH, presence of heavy metals and use of sanitizing products like chlorine Too high (>7.5) or too low (<6.0) pH can have a negative effect on the efficacy of the vaccine virus or bacteria. To prevent neutralization of the vaccine virus/bacteria drinking water must have a neutral pH.

Heavy Metal Existence or possibility of existence of Copper (Cu), Bromine (Br), Cyanate (Cy) Iron (Fe), Argentum (Ag), Mercury (Hg), Zinc (Zn) can result to direct failure of vaccination process.

Chlorine is added routinely to drinking water as a disinfectant, at a dosage rate of 0.5-2.5 ppm (part per million) to make the water drinkable.  At  this  concentration,  chlorine  is  a  strong  inactivating agent for live vaccines.

Chlorine is a bactericidal at 0.1-0.2 ppm. and a virucidal agent at 0.3-0.5 ppm of free chlorine Chlorine levels as low as one ppm (1 gram per 1000 liters of water) or contamination with heavy metals can lead to inactivation of the vaccine virus. The active chlorine concentration in drinking water is very unstable and often can reach extremely high levels. The taste and smell of chlorine cannot be used as indicator to evaluate chlorine concentration. It appears only at the level of 0.4-0.5 ppm, which is higher than the bactericidal or virucidal  effect  of chlorine  Oxygenated  water  has  a  strong  antimicrobial  effect therefore the oxygenating system should be switched off at least 48 hours before vaccination.

Therefore, before the administration of live vaccines, all free chlorine  in the water must be neutralized, in order to protect the vaccine’s  organisms. Traditionally, poultry growers, for the neutralization of chlorine and protection of live vaccines, use powdered skimmed  milk  at  the  rate  of  2.5 gram  per  liter  of  water.

Why SecureTab? 

SecureTab is an effective and easy to use chlorine neautralizing  effervescent tablet which works as an effective chlorine neutralizer  and buffering agent to maintain near neutral pH of drinking water.

SecureTab  is used to protect live vaccines against inactivation by  chlorine.  SecureTab  also  quenches  toxic  heavy  metals  and  maintains water quality by softening the water. Moreover, Secure  Tab contains a food grade blue  dye, that allows the administer to  check  the  distribution  of  the  vaccine  solution  when  it  goes  through the drinking lines and  it colors the tongue and the crop of  vaccinated birds blue. If upon inspection, 90% of the birds have the  blue color 3 hours after the start of administration  the vaccines have been correctly administered.

Benefits

∙ Easy to dissolve effervescent tablet.

∙ Leaves no residue.

∙ Neutralizes up to 5 ppm of chlorine in water.

∙ Has a buffer effect on the pH to maintain a near neutral pH.

∙ Works as a water softener.
∙ Distinctly colors the feathers, beak, tongue and crop.

∙ Food grade dye.

∙ Enables evaluation of vaccine uptake.

Instructions 

Calculate the amount of water required based on number of birds, type of vaccines and season.

Drop 1 SecureTab  tablet per 100L of water, and the tablet will dissolve within 2 minutes, resulting in a clear blue solution.

Stir and wait for 10 minutes to ensure complete softening, heavy metal quenching and pH stabilization Add desired vaccine, medicine or probiotics and stir to mix thoroughly feed solution to the birds. Evaluate the vaccination process by sampling birds from all ends of the house.

Indications 

To stabilize water for mass vaccination with live vaccines and to neutralize chlorine and monitor vaccination process.

Pack 

Easy to use dispenser with 50 individually wrapped tablets in an easy to tear pouch.

50 tubes of 15 tablets in a bucket.
