Faecal shedding level of different S. Senftenberg isolates from immunized and control group chickens. Number of CFU of S. Senftenberg strains, JOL1557, JOL1815, JOL1816 and JOL1817 per gram of faecal samples from chickens orally challenged with 5 × 108 CFUs. Bacterial recovery was performed from day 1 to 28 post-challenge by direct plating and enrichment culture. Total 6 faecal samples were collected from six birds from each sub-group within major group A, B and C and processed for bacterial recovery. The data represented is mean CFU/gm ± SEM. * symbol indicates a significant amount of bacterial recovery from control group chickens compared to single and double immunized chickens
