Effect of furazolidone in feed on immune response of turkeys vaccinated with live Pasteurella multocida in drinking water.
In 2 trials, turkey poults were fed diets containing 0.011% furazolidone: in one trial until 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 days before vaccination with live Pasteurella multocida (CU) in the drinking water; and in a second trial with the furazolidone added to the diet 4 days before the vaccination or 1, 3 or 5 days after. This 0.011% level of medication did not appear to reduce the immune response.
