Efficacy of IBDV vaccines against vvIBDV (JF826453). Vaccinated and unvaccinated groups of chicken were challenged with locally isolated vvIBDV (JF826453) with a titer of 105.6 TCID50/ml through ocular route. Morbid and dead experimental chickens (a) during the 10 days of follow-up, 50% of the unvaccinated chickens were sick (b) while 30% died (10% at day 6 and 20% at day 8). On the other hand, vaccinated chickens (DF-1 and CEF cell-based vaccines) were completely protected (). (c) G1: DF-1 cell-based vaccine, G2: CEF cell-based vaccines, and G3: unvaccinated controls.
