Description

Cristina Martin Jimenez and colleagues report a European ring test on telling vaccine from wild strains of a poultry germ, published in 2026. The MS-H live vaccine protects chickens against Mycoplasma synoviae. Laboratories must distinguish vaccine from field strains for monitoring. Sixteen laboratories tested blind sample pools.

Each pool held vaccine strain, field strain, or both. Only about five in six samples were identified correctly. Mixed pools failed most often. Laboratories using the same technique still varied, pointing to operator and interpretation effects. The authors advise confirming results with a second technique before costly farm decisions.
