Abstract

Summary Of 1500 examined Holstein cows in milk, there were 315 cows with mucopurulent discharges at the time of insemination (21%). Twenty-four hours after insemination, the infected animals randomly received no treatment (group I, control, n = 93), intrauterine infusion of 1 g oxytetracycline (group II, n = 63) and intrauterine infusion of 5 million IU procain penicillin G sodium (group III, n = 159). First service conception rate following treatment was 48.3, 49.2 and 47.7% in groups I, II and III, respectively. In conclusion, treatment with either antibiotic had no advantage relative to the control on first service conception rate.
