GPP 2 - Establish Veterinary Client Relationship &GPP 3 - Follow Healthy Production Practices &GPP - 6 Maintain Biosecurity S Peder Cuneo U of Az Extension Veterinarian
Start With a Healthy Animal • The First Step in Biosecurity • The Most Important Step in Development of an effective vaccination program/herd health • Reduces (Eliminates) need for Treatment and residue worrries • Get Best Response to Feeding Program
Vaccination, Introduction to Animal Health Program • Proper nutrition • Protein and trace minerals in young growing animals • Low stress conditions • Stress hormones reduce immune system • Functioning immune system
Killed Vaccines and Toxoids Modified Live Chemically Altered Vaccine tools for the immune system
Wide variety of Dz protection No risk of reverting to “wild strain” No risk of spread between animals Little risk of abortion More stable in storage No on farm mixing required Good stimulant for colostrum More likely to cause allergic reaction/lumps Boosters usually required Slower onset of immunity May not stimulate as strong or long lasting immunity Narrower spectrum of protection vs. MLV Blocking by maternal antibodies problem for young stock Cost is often higher Killed Vaccines/Toxoids/Chemically Altered
One dose can provide protection More rapid protection Wider spectrum of protection vs. Killed Less likely to cause allergic reaction/lumps Not as susceptible to passive antibody block Cost usually less vs. Killed Possible reversion to virulent forms Disease problems in immune stressed animals Possible excessive immune response Risk of abortion/infertility Handling and mixing Modified Live
Vaccine Handling • Follow label • Storage especially refrigeration • FOLLOW LABELS • PREGANCY STATUS, AGE, BOOSTER • Expiration date • Refrigeration after mixing • MLV short life after mixing/temperature effect
Vaccination Procedures • FOLLOW LABEL DIRECTIONS • Route of injection and location • Tent skin for SubQ • Needle length • IM 1-1.5 inch 16 or 18 gauge • SubQ 3/4 inch or 1 inch 16-18 gauge • Spread out injection sites • Change needles every 10-20 head
Vaccination ProceduresPart II • Make sure hide/skin is clean/free of mud and manure • DO NOT USE SKIN DISINFECTANT OR DIP NEEDLE IN DISINFECTANT WHEN USING A MLV VACCINE • DO NOT MIX VACCINES • FOLLOW QA GUIDELINES ON INJECTION SITES
Vaccine Labeling • Label Claims Reflect Differing Levels of Assurance of Performance • Label Claims are Negotiated Between USDA & Manufacturer • USDA Provides Independent Assurance that Label Claims can be Substantiated
Labels Imply Different Outcomes • Available Options • a) “To Prevent Infection. . .” • b) “To Prevent Disease. . .” • c) “As an Aid in the Prevention of Disease. . .”
Option c) in labeling"As an aid in the prevention of disease due to..." or "for the reduction of.." Is used for products that produce a significant effect in achieving the claim • Mild disease • Multi-agent disease "syndromes" • Severe challenge can overwhelm protective effect

Drug use and label guidelines • OTC (Over The Counter) • Purchased and used by producer without input from veterinarian • Product must have directions that are clear enough for safe and effective use by producer • Owner is responsible for any residues • ALL LABEL DIRECTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY
Label guidelines II • Legend drugs • Drugs determined by FDA to require veterinary “supervision” for safe and effective use • Name and address of dispensing veterinarian must be on container • ALL DISPENSING DIRECTIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY
Label guidelines III • Extralabel Drug Use (ELUD) • The use of any OTC or label (prescription) drug in any manner not specified on the label • Use in different species • Use in different class of animal • Dose used • Route of administration • Disease condition not indicated on label
ELDU • Title 21 CFR new Part 530 • Animal Medicinal Drug Use Clarification Act of 1994 • ELDU outside of AMDUCA is a violation of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act • Enforcement of ELDU is under the control of Federal Food and Drug Administration
Requirements for ELDU • Valid veterinary-client-patient relationship • Vet responsible for clinical judgment • Lack of labeled therapeutic alternative • None on market • Available drugs ineffective at labeled dose • Complete records • Withdrawal times
Limitations of ELDU • Must have VALID vet/client/patient relationship • Feed additives can NEVER be used under ELDU, only to treat disease • There are Prohibited drugs that can Neverbe used
Chloramphenicol Clenbuterol Diethylstilbestrol Dimetridazole Ipronidazole Other nitroimidazoles Furazlidone Nitrofurazone Sulfonamide drugs in lactating diary cattle (three specific exceptions) Fluoroquinolones Glycopeptides FDA Sec 530.41 Prohibited Drugs
Classification of Antibiotic Use • Therapeutic • Application of a specific drug to treat a specific health problem • Sub therapeutic • Low level of antibiotics fed to stimulate growth and improve feed conversion • Average amount fed is less than 2 oz/ton feed
Not following label directions No records Misidentification Excess volume injection Chronic with depressed liver/kidney function Treated before purchase Unaware of withdrawal times Feed/water contamination Antibiotics/chemical residues They won’t test David’s Top 10 Reasons Why Beef Residues Happen
Biosecurity “Is the outcome of all activities undertaken by an entity to preclude the introduction of disease agents into an area that one is trying to protect” David Dargatz, Vet Clinics North American vol 18:1 pg 1
Biosecurity and Technology • Vaccinology • Therapeutic Drugs • Diagnostic Testing
Biosecurity What To Avoid • Reliance on vaccination • Reliance on therapy • Attempting to overcome genetic/inherited problems • Making assumptions about animals status that can be tested but are not “I assumed”
BiosecurityBasics for Livestock Activities… can you say “A-RITS”
THE “A’ FROM A-RITS • Risk Assessment • Evaluate … decide level appropriate • Risk Management • Resistance, Exposure, Transmission • Risk Documentation • Record … Review recordings • Surveillance testing
Risk Areas • Procurement • Feed/Water • Wildlife, Arthropods, Insects • Caretakers, Service,Visitors • Equipment • Wind-delivered
Biosecurity The “RITS” • Resistance, Isolation, Traffic Control, & Sanitation. • Maximize resistance • (General Specific) • Isolate from outside and within • Control exposure & potential spread • Clean, Clean & Clean
Healthy Livestock • Start with healthy animals • Biosecurity • Keep animals healthy • Biosecurity • Animal health programs • Teach excellent animal husbandry/care • Production animal welfare
