One of the key people involved with the Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health Seminar was Gary Robertson. He’s the brand manager for Ingelvac MycoFLEX. You can actually see him sitting in the back left part of this picture during the presentations.
Gary says they’ve been very fortunate to obtain CircoFLEX in ’06, MycoFLEX in ’07 and just recently, Ingelvac CircoFLEX-MycoFLEX in ’08.
Since this “combo package” is brand new I asked him what makes it possible. It’s all in the adjuvant which is also part of the FLEX platform. It’s called IMPRAN FLEX. Gary says this is an aqueous-based polymer adjuvant which is very safe and easy to use. He says it’s been very successful and refreshing to the industry to have a safe product for two problem diseases. He also says they’re working on new FLEX products, so I’m sure we’ll hear more about that in the future.
