Epi. 302 – Beyond the Bug: Building Gram-Negative Resilience in Cattle Using Salmonella Dublin as the Test Case – Sponsored by Endovac Animal Health

Dela

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Travis White, Chief Veterinary Officer for Endovac Animal Health. Endovac is the sponsor of the student reception at the 59th AABP Annual Conference in Minneapolis, Minn. Find information about Endovac and their portfolio of animal health products on this page

 

Gram-negative diseases remain a major challenge across beef, dairy, calf ranch and feedlot systems. White discusses these challenges and why the focus should not necessarily be on the organism itself, but thinking about endotoxin, immune stress and animal resilience. Endotoxin exposure drives the clinical signs associated with these disease challenges leading to inappetence, depression, fever and leukopenia. 

 

White reviews core-antigen technology and how this approach differs from a conventional multi-antigen bacterin. He also discusses Immune Plus from Endovac and how veterinarians should think about immune stimulation. This technology can fit into existing vaccine and herd health programs vs. replacing currently used tools. White also reviews a challenge study with Salmonella Dublin and the take-aways from this study to help veterinarians who want to build stronger Gram-negative disease control programs.
