Control of fowl cholera in Hungary.

Abstract

Experiences of the control of fowl cholera in large poultry farms in Hungary are reported. A vaccination method combined with sulfaquinoxaline treatment was developed against fowl cholera. Studies were carried out for the determination of the therapeutic and toxic doses of sulfaquinoxaline in fowls experimetnally infected with Pasteurella multocida. Field experiences with Sukvin, a sulfaquinoxaline containing vaccine, against this disease are reported. Sukvin was produced by Phylaxia Serum State Institute, Budapest, Hungary, and has been generally used in that country since 1967.
