[Effectiveness of Rhodovet for the prevention of coli enterotoxemia in a swine breeding facility].
The coli enterotoxemia caused by Coli serotype 0139 occurred in contrary to the generally observed course of this infection through several weeks and was exceedingly detrimental. Almost exclusively the shock and oedema form of coli enterotoxemia was seen. The application of usual schemes of prophylaxis and therapy did not effect durable reduction of animal losses. With the daily oral application of Rhodovet, a drug containing thiocyanate, in doses of 3.5 kg/t feed during 5 weeks the morbidity resp. mortality could be decisively reduced.
