Fowl cholera immunization in turkeys. 3. Significance of market quality in the evaluation of fowl cholera vaccines.
Turkeys vaccinated with various experimental vaccines and a commerical bacterin for fowl cholera and surviving an artificially induced epornitic were killed, and their carcasses were examined for wholesomeness. It was evident that, if the "fitness for human consumption" judgement was considered in addition to mortality, efficacy ratings of the various vaccines changed. This suggests that the "fitness for human consumption" factor be considered in future evaluation of biologicals for use in meat-producing birds.
