Immeureka Animal Health Pvt Ltd has launched the Immeureka Knowledge Series

Immeureka Animal Health Pvt Ltd, a leading innovator in animal health solutions, held the launch of its comprehensive knowledge series at Nala Hotel, Nammakal on 05.01.2024. The topic of this event was Avian Respiratory Disease including pathogenesis, surveillance, diagnosis, and control.

Key notes speakers in Immeureka Knowledge series were Dr D K Dey, Dr N K Mahajan & Dr Piruthiviraj Kumar. The first speaker, Dr. Dey (Executive Director- Immeureka Animal Health Pvt Ltd), emphasized the significance of advancements in poultry health and how they are integral to achieving Immeureka vision 2030. In his presentation, he highlighted innovative approaches, cutting-edge research, and technological advancements for improving poultry health and disease control.

Dr. NK Mahajan's (Prof.& Head (Retd.), Dept. of Veterinary Public Health & Epidemiology, Lala Lajpat Rai University of Veterinary & Animal Science, Hisar-Haryana, India, presented a comprehensive overview of some of the most concerning poultry diseases. His presentation was on Newcastle Disease (ND), Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), Low Pathogenic Avian Influenza (LPAI), Infectious Bronchitis (IB), Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG), and Mycoplasma synoviae (MS). Dr. Mahajan's presentation emphasized the importance of biosecurity in preventing avian respiratory diseases. Biosecurity measures include:

• Isolating new birds from the main flock.
• Practicing good hygiene and sanitation.
• Controlling pests and rodents
• Devising effective vaccination regimen against preventable diseases

By following these biosecurity measures, poultry farmers can help to protect their flocks from avian respiratory diseases.

Dr. Piruthiviraj Kumar, Chief Technical Officer at Indsalus Biosolutions India Private Limited, delivered an insightful presentation on avian respiratory disease diagnosis, emphasizing the crucial role of serological methods which includes Haemagglutination inhibition (HI) tests, Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and molecular method which includes Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Dr. Kumar presented several field studies demonstrating the successful application of serological and molecular methods for diagnosing ND, LPAI, IB, and a MPV in poultry flocks. These studies highlighted the importance of using a combination of approaches to ensure accurate and timely diagnosis, ultimately facilitating effective disease control measures. By employing advanced diagnostic techniques like serology and PCR, veterinarians and poultry farmers can gain valuable insights into avian respiratory disease outbreaks, enabling them to implement targeted interventions and prevent further spread of these highly contagious diseases.

Immeureka Animal Health Private Limited Organised Technical Seminars in Haryana and Punjab

Immeureka, a startup in the poultry sector, conducted a technical seminar on April 26 th and 27 th , 2024, at Kanina (Haryana) and Zirakpur (Punjab). The main objective of the conference was to provide veterinarians, poultry farmers, and feed millers with the necessary knowledge of two key topics: “Mycotoxin and Pesticide Residue Management in Poultry” and “Premix for Laying Birds as a One-Stop Solution.” 

The event began with a cordial greeting from Mr. Sarwar Ali, who gave a brief overview of the company and presented the product range of Immeureka Animal Health Private Limited to the attendees.

Following the introduction, Dr Rajesh Kokje detailed how the mycotoxins and pesticide residues in feed will negatively impact poultry production and in what way control measures need to be implemented. Among the control strategies he explained were Xpel™ which is an algae-derived diatomite that binds multiple mycotoxins and selectively binds pesticide residues in all raw materials and feed, and another product. Xpel Spectra™ are organic blends of diatomite, HSCAS, and yeast extract that target multiple mycotoxins and bind pesticide residues in feed, with additional benefits of immunity enhancement by β-glucans and pathogen agglutination in the intestine by Mannan oligosaccharides (MOS).

The session by Mr. Sarwar Ali emphasized the importance of premixes for the laying birds. He explained about Potenza, the synergistic combination of highly effective special ingredients that offers laying hens a total and superior solution from the first day to the end of the production. Potenza is a comprehensive product that consists of tributyrin, organic minerals, i.e., Mn, Zn, Cu, Se, methionine, and prebiotics. Tributyrin enhances gut health, thereby increasing nutrient digestibility, growth performance, and immunity in birds. Prebiotics provide active support and relief for the immune system, they have high bonding power, inactivate pathogens and toxins in the intestinal lumen, and optimize the digestive processes. Trace minerals provide the essential nutrients poultry need for metabolic functions such as growth and development, immunity, and reproduction, and they also help reduce the number of thin-shelled and dirty eggs during the late-laying period. Hydroxy analogue of methionine is required for feather development and maintaining egg production in poultry.

After the seminar, Mr. Hanumatesh, the Immeureka zonal manager for North and East, and Bijoy Kumar, regional manager for Punjab, gave a vote of thanks to all of the attendees, thanking them for their participation in the event. The event offered farmers, professionals, and feed millers an opportunity for deep conversation, fostering networking and the exchange of knowledge.
