As individual as your herd!
A custom manufactured bacterin using specific 'on-farm' pathogenic isolates
that are causing the disease issue.
Customized medicine for a local problem.
In a time of 'one-size-fits-all', autogenous bacterin services provides
an individual approach, when most other biological choices have already failed.
Obtain farm samples. Isolate the disease pathogen. Provide isolate to the AAH manufacturing team.
We'll develop enough farm-specific bacterin for herd vaccination for your specific farm.
Makes sense doesn't it?

AUTOGENOUS BACTERINS
Q & A
1. WHAT IS AUTOGENOUS BACTERINS?
- A custom-manufactured bacterin using specific 'on-farm' pathogenic isolates that are causing the disease issue.
- Customized medicine for a local problem.
- Autogenous Bacterin products are produced from specific samples or isolates of organisms obtained from diseased animals.
- Autogenous Bacterins must be produced by USDA licensed facilities with an Autogenous product license issued from the USDA.
- AAH is a USDA licensed facility, with a license to produce Autogenous Bacterins.
2. HOW DO YOU CREATE AUTOGENOUS BACTERINS?
- The samples are processed through your local diagnostic laboratory or university diagnostic laboratory. At your request, the laboratory sends a sample of the isolated disease-causing organism to American Animal Health, Inc. AAH then produces a vaccine from the culture in the number of doses that you specify.
3. WHY USE AUTOGENOUS BACTERINS?
- Autogenous products are used when commercial products are not available or have not provided the desired level of protection to prevent or stop disease outbreaks in certain animal populations or geographical areas. We can manufacture bacterin-toxiod that contains up to 5 different microorganisms/isolates to meet your specific needs.
- AAH has manufactured Autogenous Bacterins since 1983 using the state-of-the-art technology available.
4. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PRODUCE AN AUTOGENOUS BACTERIN?
- The production time varies depending on the growth time of the organism and the number of doses being produced. In most cases, vaccines are available to ship within 6 weeks for the first serial. Products prepared after the first production requires more release time based on USDA regulations. Extra doses may be produced on the first production, AAH will keep the inventory on hand and have it available for immediate shipment.
