Treatment of postpartum metritis in dairy cows caused by Actinomyces pyogenes

摘要: Three treatments (oxytetracycline infusions, prostaglandin injections, and no treatment) were applied to Holstein cows with postpartum metritis from which A pyogenes had been isolated the uterus. Gross involution was not different between groups, but oxytetracycline infusions significantly reduced (P <0. 005) incidence of infected uteri. Numbers too small pass judgement on fertility when all groups combined definitely reduced.
