| description | <b>Aim: </b>The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy
of tilmicosin in the treatment of respiratory system
infections of calves.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> This study was performed on 30
calves with respiratory system infections. Bronchoalveolar
lavage (BAL) fluid samples were taken from the calves.
Microbiological examinations of BAL fluid samples were
performed and antibiotic susceptibilities of the agents were
determined. A single dose of tilmicosin (10 mg/kg SC) was
administered to each calves.<p>
<b>Results:</b> While bacterial growth was not observed in 11 of 30
BAL samples, bacterial growth of 19 was detected. Pasteurella
multocida (P. multocida) was isolated in 14 of the sample.
Remaining bacteria were 3 Trueperella pyogenes (T. pyogenes)
and 2 Escherichia coli (E. coli). Amoxicillin, sefquinom,
marbofloxacin, gamithromycin and tilmicosin were found to
be effective antibiotics.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> As a result, the dominant bacterium in respiratory
system infections is Pasteurella multocida and also tilmicosin
was effective in the treatment of respiratory diseases
of calves. |
