CLINICAL TRIALS WITH CERTAIN ANTIMICROBIALS IN COWS SUFFERING FROM ENDOMETRITIS

摘要

In the present work, 68 cows suffering from endometritis were taken for the treatment with antimicrobials based on in-vitro sensitivity on different bacterial isolates. In-vitro sensitivity test showed the highest sensitivity with enrofloxacin (73.07%) followed by gentamicin (67.94%) and cephalexin (60.25%). Enrofloxacin by i.v. route showed the highest efficacy as noted by the conception rate of 81.25% followed by i. v. administration of gentamicin (75%). Next highest efficacy was noted with i.u. administration of enrofloxacin (70%) while gentamicin and cephalexin by i.u administration showed conception rate of 50% each. The efficacies of antimicrobials on conception rate were well correlated with in-vitro sensitivity test.
