Abstract

A serologic examination on 24 calves older than 3 months shows that BRS virus seems more closely related to the acute stadium of enzootic pneumonia than IBR, PI-3 and BVD virus. Pneumonic diseases in calves can with great significance be prevented on a short term by giving tylosin, which at the same time gives an averagely higher daily growth.
