Article Synopsis
  • The Mycoplasma synoviae live attenuated vaccine strain MS-H (Vaxsafe MS) is widely used globally to protect chickens from chronic M. synoviae infections and reduce economic losses in the poultry industry.
  • MS-H, developed through chemical mutagenesis of a virulent strain, has 32 single nucleotide variations compared to its original strain, with questions remaining about the stability of these mutations during vaccine production and after vaccination.
  • A study of 11 laboratory passages and 138 bird reisolates identified 254 sequence variations in the MS-H genome, revealing that certain regions may be more prone to mutations, although the overall occurrence of significant mutations remains infrequent.

() is a highly contagious avian pathogen responsible for significant economic losses for the poultry industry. In some circumstances, antimicrobial treatment is useful to contain clinical signs of infection in birds. However, antimicrobial resistance emergence is now common among animal pathogens, becoming a worldwide health concern.
