Dear Dr. Venugopalan,
Could you tell me the source of the information that you have mentioned?
"European Union recommends formalin up to 2.5 l per tonne of feed for maintaining immunity and production". Thank you in advance.

Now low pathogenic avian influenza is endemic. Low pathogenic avian influenza is exacerbated by bacterial and viral agents. so called lPAI can cause mortality even up yo 90 percent due to exacerbation. No prophylactic vaccination against avian influenza. Under poultry management sanitation covers water and environment, feed shows heavy bacterial contamination. No feed sanitation is done as a routine, European Union recommends formalin up to 2.5 l per tonne of feed for maintaining immunity and production. Feed sanitation is essential. a.t. venugopalan.
