[Measurement of the mucociliary transport velocity in the trachea of calves].
A measuring method is presented for the determination of the velocity of intratracheal mucociliary transport in calves, which is applicable for nonanaesthetized animals directly in the calf stable. The transport velocity in the trachea of clinically healthy calves was found to be about 15 mm/min, which is in agreement with other reports.
